The LR&W has placed Alco C-420's 101 (ex LIRR 207) and 102 (ex L&N) up for sale.
Anecdotal evidence is that 101 needs a traction motor and main generator, with 102 operational.

Both units were 'remanufactured' by the GB&W shop in the early '80s ?. The 101 has a cut down short hood along with modified step assemblies.

Go to the Genessee &Wyoming (current owner of the LR&W) website for details.

They don't seem to be listed on the G&W website as for sale.

Any details on price?

My posting came from a very good source when ALCO is involved. I believe disposition is via sealed bid.
