In opening this group since there is no one posting here at the moment. Off the top of your head folks. What countries used ALCOs in a narrow gauge configuration? I mean any gauge below standard gauge. Argentina, Columbia,Chile, Peru, India, Ecuador, Pakistan, Greece are the first ones that come to mind. And this question is fielded toward any type of ALCO built locomotive. This forum is inactive at the moment and I,m just hoping someone will bite

The White Pass and Yukon Route's DL535s are alcos or alco copies. The older units with C424 cabs I think are CLW products, the ones with "Canadian" cabs Bombardier built.

They are not copies, they are the real thing, the first seven were in fact being constructed at Schenectedy when ALCO closed down, so they were finished at Montreal.
