ACL E's on the N&W

[NW Mailing List]

Ed, 
  
Right! Sorry for the confusion.  George Hughes through his Springhaven Shops did produce the ACL units; the RF&P units were a NWHS project mainly through the efforts of George Hughes, John Snidow and Charlie Schlotthober.

Russ contact me.  I have the 2 ACL-N&W leased E-7's (533 & 530) produced by Springhaven Shops (the NWHS didn't produce the models...Springhaven Shops was George Hughes' operation).  I also think I have some B&W pictures somewhere too.  I also have the 2 RF&P-N&W leased units produced.

I'm not sure you were old enough to appreciate 
rock and roll music of the late 50s.   The ACL's E units 
were involved in a phenominal number of grade 
crossing collisions and  crews named them 
for a popular song of the day --  Flying Purple 
People-eaters.                     Harry Bundy
