The Livonia, Avon & Lakeville, in my opinion, operates probably the most meticulously maintined fleet of Alcos in the world! With that being said, today I was lucky enough to catch two of their units operating a rail train between Avon and Rush, New York.

(top) This is #420, an Alco C-420, leading the train on this cold January morning!

(middle) The second unit is #425, an Alco C-425.

(bottom) This last shot shows the pair and the lead flat of the CWR train. The Continuous Welded Rail, or CWR, will be a great improvment over the lighter rail that is in use now on the LA&L.
