Unlikely little consist...
Anyone else besides Ray & I think those are F7B units behind the Alco 420?

Yep, It could be an F3B, looks like they upgraded them with F7B grills. http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/lv/lv519adc.jpg Here's a roster http://www.northeast.railfan.net/lv_rstr.html

Hey Ray:
Any guess, based on the railing what the unit is attached to the "B"?

I'd say Alco RS series.

Hey Romcat,
I'm afraid my info just says the roof overhang was found "only on early F7s". Not sure for how many units that would apply. Also, the B-units had an overhang on both ends.
