Dave,
Your comment that the AL's were built as 'single enders' for 'aesthetic'
reasons !!
God forbid, I hope this is not a personal view !!
>From an aesthetic's point of view the AL's were not exactly pretty engines,
in the first place.
Rebuilding to ALF's wasn't  exactly a design coup !!
I'd suspect that the rebuild was more in keeping with AN's policy, in regard
to Motive Power, at the time.
It may have, also been associated with the ill-fated  ALF+BU+ALF Combo's !!
But for 'aeshetics' ??
I don't think so !!
Regards
Patrick J Buchanan
