ALCo C-628
All delivered in the Lightning Stripe scheme. Units #601 and #605-618 had single sand fillers. Units #602-604 had dual sand fillers. As far as we can tell, only #602 and #606 received the small nose shield during a repaint. All others retained the larger nose shield. All went to NdeM in 1978.
