The Alco Black Beast Attends the Tobay Beach Car Show


The Black Beast was a hit at last Sunday's Spring Tobay Beach Car Show on April 27, 2025.

Hundreds of cars, but crowds gathered all day long to see and learn all about the Alco.

This cute little guy stood up on his own for the first time in the Alco! A future Alco driver!

...and threw a fit, crying hysterically when Dad took him out.

Great show with great cars. It was good to see the Black Beast up close, even though I have seen it before. The Canadian Ford (the Meteor) was a surprise.

I was there! A COLD WINDY DAY! In the second photo, I was doing my show and tell of the Black Beast that I know well by now. The group I was talking to were amuse of my coment about the Motor Parkway plate on the radiator as the first E-PASS of its day. After the quick walkarount I liked that ‘29-‘30 LaSalle.
