Quick question, I learned a number of years ago that RELCO had a former DL&W HH660. I know that they had made several (or all?) of their HH660s available for donation some years back. What happened to this one? (Is it indeed true that they owned a former Lackawanna unit in the first place???)
Thanks, all!

Wow, that's great news! I didn't realize they still had any HH660s running, thanks for the info! Now would anyone happen to have any photos? Thanks again!

Yeah, that's the formerly operable locomotive that was donated and is now good for nothing more than a paint job, since it will never run again.

Different locomotive.

If you wish to discuss the Relco # 606, lets start a new thread on that.

Agree about the new topic on that particular loco. However I thought being that it going from one company to another,I thought it could be of the same type of ALCO being discussed here. And that someone could get the general idea and possible picture of what ALCO'S HH660 looks like ...
