Last Run of an ALCO

Description

While out railfanning, Tom captures a Santa Fe ALCO PA on its final run in revenue passenger service. Tom was an extreme fan of ALCOs. Though this maybe his first and ONLY time he'll ever catch one. 

Santa Fe is to BNSF Railways

I have some criticism.

1.as a major fan of alco, i know that the front nose of the PA was NOT slanted. it was straight. 

2.the front nose is to low, it looks more like a EMD E4.

3.the trucks of the PA are NOT detailed they dont look like Commonwealth or Bloomberg trucks. it DEFIANTLY does not look like the A1A trucks that the PA came with.

4.the tracks are so thin, they couldn't  even support the weight of an A+B set of PAs  AND a GE U28CG and a full consest.

5. the horns are WAY to big.

6.the PAs went out of service in the late 60s early 70s, therefore the last santa fe PAs did an excurison in 1968,so if tom went railfaning in 1968 with a I PHONE he must bee a time traveler!
