Re: ALCO BASHING
Further to an earlier post I made, the respective lifetime kilometres
covered of WCR locomotives as at 19/8/97 was
S300 6,753,537 (celebrated it's 40th birthday on this date)
S302 6,643,964
S311 5,522,475
B61 6,488,056 (celebrated it's 45th birthday the day before!, hence had
covered 6,487,255 as at 18/8/97)
B76 5,804,789
The S's were certainly worked hard by the VR - the's B's had a 5 year
head start, yet the S's have run the bigger mileages.
In WCR service, locomotives had run
S300 321,535
S302 231,768
S311 284,344
B61 191,925
B76 54,257
total of justa tick under 1.1 million kms. And there's plenty more to
come! Long live the mighty GM's!
Cheers,
Craig.
