Winchester & Western

The Winchester & Western has been hauling sand out of Gore, Virginia for many years.
Over that time it has used some interesting locomotives. Lately the W&W has been using these unique home-built slug units.
Alco and EMD parts were combined to create a locomotive with cab controls and traction motors, but no prime mover. The trailing Geep generates the power to run both itself and the slug.
