we can check our photos of the 1776/173 duo Would an FM M/U with at EMD ? Baldwins won't
M/U with EMDs, ALCO's etc., because they have
an air-activated throttle (no notches on the throttle
either). On Norfolk Terminal, the FMs were usually
paired. Except for being handled dead in tow, I
never saw an FM in a consist of ALCOs or EMDs. Was
the 173 just "along for the ride" on that excursion ?
