For sale, ex-DCF&B S-1. **only** $9,500. (Yes, $9,500)
Yes, friction bearing tricks. Still for that price...
Body is in good shape, and I believe it was runnable when the DCF&B shut down.

"Built for the U.S. Military by ALCO, unit is currently stored but was serviceable when taken out of service, prime move has approximately 1000 hours of service (U.S. Military seldom used the unit). Some of the mechanical details include: Non turbo 539 prime mover, friction bearings, blunt trucks, good wheels, good body,14E brakes, air reverser, cab glass need replaced."
PRICE: $9,500 O.B.O
"OMR has recently affiliated it's self with an independent contractor who can move rail equipment by highway or can re-wheel a car from friction bearing to roller for movement. Contact our office for details."
What's not to like? Good wheels too!
RS (Wish *I* had the cash....)
