Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox locomotive The Alco T6 (DL 440) was a diesel-electric switcher locomotive rated at Шаблон:Convert, that rode on two-axle trucks, having a B-B wheel arrangement.
The 'T' stood for 'Transfer', meaning this locomotive was capable of faster transition and higher sustained speeds than the regular 'S' - type yard switcher series.

Survivors
The Delaware Coast Line Railway, the Ohio Central Railway and the Arkansas & Missouri operate the T-6. Ohio Central's T-6 is unique because it was the only one built (for Monongahela Connecting Railroad) with Hi-Ad trucks.[1] 14 T-6's survive in all.
Pennsylvania RR 8427 survives as Georges Creek Railway 101. It was that railroad's first locomotive acquisition and is often used to switch the NewPage paper mill at Luke, Maryland.[2]
Newburg and South Shore Railroad 1017 survives on the West Michigan Railroad.
Newburg and South Shore Railroad 1016 survives as Middletown and Hummelstown Railroad 1016.[3]
