Alco RS-1 page

I'm goiing back and forth with someone called 199.233.142.10 about the last RS-1 built. Before that person it was Diesel Expert, probably the same person. I wrote a real nice source paragraph on the talk page about the last 27 RS-1s of which the GTW units are a part. --SSW9389 20:38, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

I took a quick look and initially agree with your edits. The supporting factor was looking at this edit the same IP user made to the Chicago, Peoria and St. Louis Railroad page. A trivial search found a reference to the Illinois State Museum that supports the original name that was in the article. I'm confident that a quick search in Google Books will find some additional documentation from closer to that time period that would further support the original text. If this user continues disruptive editing on the RS-1 page without engaging in talk page discussions, we can semi-protect or short-term protect the page from edits until he does participate in the discussion. So I'll keep an eye on it for at least part of today. Slambo (Speak) 16:05, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
