Are there any Alcos left in Cuba? What models?

For sure, the MX624s. They were getting overhauled last year.

I have been looking for information on former Napierville Junction (D&H Canadian Subsidiary) RS-2s 4050 & 4051. They went to Cuba in the early 80s as their 51501 & 51502. Would b interested in their operational history there. One Cuban site I found mentioned that they were not well used as they had problems getting parts. Were they scrapped? Are they still around?
