The 8AM Niagara switch job has made a quick trip over to Norway on the main line to switch the Northland Grocers warehouse. He is pulled up to the end of the line here and I am standing on the shoulder of U.S. 2 to get the shot. The ex-Frisco GP7s have just arrived on the property and forced all of the remaining FM switchers into retirement. August 29, 1976.
CPR 15 makes a short switch move at Cal Maine in Shady Dale before pulling down to the NS interchange at Machen.
Heat shrink tube is great!. I also hot glued the wires(connections) because the soldering points are so fragile!
With the first car unloaded it's shoved in the clear under the highway overpass and cut off from the rest. This would be repeated for each car once empty to allow for the pieces to be picked up and the car rolled out from underneath. Most of the switch cars have been the red recent rebuilds, this orange one on the other hand has been in this service much longer and has the scars to show it. July 2, 2020.
Neben dem MoMA in Nw York gehört das Tate Modern in London zu DEN Museen für moderne Kunst. Seit Juni 2016 hat das TM noch einen draufgelegt und mit dem Switch House einen neuen großen Anbau eröffnet.

A little electric switcher at the Hannover Tram Museum.
This little switcher was used by the DVG (Duisburger Verkehrsgesellschaft AG) to move trams at the depot.
Sadly there is barely any information about this switcher.

FCRD's GP11 switches boxcars at the RockTen paper mill with the port cranes in the background. The track to the right appeared to be disused at the time but saw boxcars parked on it when I was there last weekend.
Cae is prolly a serious man?
Maybe he's a stern governor-type. 8 D
Eitherway, he's got a heart because he supervises kids (and not-so-kids) at an orphanage. :)
Don't be so serious, Cae!
Another one of my "Over the Top / Saturated Photos." Not a HDR, just dorking around in Lightroom 2.4.
Interesting facts from Wikipedia:
The M&H RR owns one of the last true ALCO switchers ever built, #1016. The 1016 is a T-6 type switcher engine. This and ALCO sister 151 (ex Western Maryland S-6) still see daily service in Middletown.
Just a quiet night at the Switch Bar in Boonton, NJ .Went to see some friends I had not seen in a while.Taken 031412.
This is a rare GE switcher. I'm not sure what its designation is but it along with 8-10 others was built for the NYC in 1942. They were used for passenger car switching but weren't satisfactory enough because they were sold by 1952 to industrial quarry railroads. This one ended up at a foundry in Hubbard Ohio before it was donated to the Youngstown Steel Heritage Museum. Youngstown OH
