I got two PAs in my first American Flyer train. It's a shame this is the only condition I ever actually saw them in, stripped of parts and waiting for the price of stainless steel to go up.
Alco PA-1 853 now belongs to Erie-Lackawanna but still wears Erie green, its second color scheme. This was a Saturday morning and this unit and several RS-3 units were idle in the small yard.
