When NYS&W scrapped their remaining vintage diesels in 1988 they were scrapped on site and gone within the week. 

Certainly logical, as scrapping a diesel electric units brings a LOT more money do to the other, much more valuable metals, such as copper. Also, some of the components, like cooling fans, traction motors, main generators, auxiliary generators, and diesel engine components can be sold as re-buildable cores to component remanufacturers.
