The Sealston Switcher is at the top end of the Dahlgren Branch with 33 empty trash cars. The train was formerly known as the Emerald Express when the trainset was comprised of pretty green tub cars that have since been replaced. The train sees daylight only for a short time after going on duty at 6pm, and only during the longer days of the year/

My grandfather, Stanley Rzepka, worked for the Milwaukee Road, mostly at the Bensenville Yard, from 1952 through 1977. He was a yard inspector--checking trains as they were being put together before they headed out, throwing switches, etc. This is his switch key, found recently by my grandmother and given to me.

A B&OCT switch run crosses Burnham Ave, 12-89. If you look closely you can see that the brakeman has just tossed the flare that he used to stop auto traffic at this unprotected crossing.
So I broke down and ordered a bukkumi bag from Switch when they were temporarily in stock. :B The box was huge! The package was cute, but I must say I was really hoping for one of the faceupped heads. Ah well, I do like the wigs I got, but I'll probably sell the Haji.
