So I would imagine that ALCo, manufacturer of some fantastic steam and diesel locomotives and located on the NYC, would deliver new locomotives by rail. I've seen builder's photos of new locomotives in front of the Schenectady plant, but how did they get delivered to their respective customers? Did they run the Big Boys down the Water Level Route?
Thoughts?
Thanks,

They were freight, hauled dead-in-train.
