Anyone know if the Wheeling got the Alco trucks shipped back from all the GP35's that got traded to Larry's Truck & Electric, to support their 13 unit fleet of GP35-3's that have Type B's under them?

I remember them buying five pairs of trucks off scrapped Green Bay & Western Alco's just to get their elliptical springs a few years prior, so it seemed strange to see these recently serviceable units leave on their own wheels a few years back.
