Reply to "It's SWITCHER SATURDAY 3/8/25 Edition!!!"

Greetings and salutations this cold Saturday morning! Feeling fortunate Enjoying Saturday switcher once again. Patrick thanks for the Lionel 616 start! It’s a beauty and your first loco! Awesome story.
616 Question:might anyone know if the 616 shell can be adaptable to a 624 mechanism without too much modification?

Mel, your visit to Hazel Street is interesting. I particularly like the Farmington Canal Emblem shown in your photo. There is a farming plow representing the historic hard work accompanied by the covered canal scow. Magnificent period history. Fortunately the plaque is respected and in good shape.

Bob! I never get tired of looking at all the action on your pike! There’s life’s movement everywhere!

Tom Densel, trackside king! The videos are mesmerizing as usual. Village of Killbridge is a great spot to watch!

Steam Crazy, 70 years old 624’s  still going strong…I have a couple of them along with 623 and 6250! Classic switchers! My favorites. But temporarily retired to shelf queen position.

Strap Hanger! That LIRR boxcab is quite a sight on your layout. Thx for video!
I have one in scale that does float job duty. Enclosed a short demonstration of a model that I brought back to life!



David Ripp, thumbs up on the Way of the Zephyrs shell transfer! I have a 624 power unit looking for the adaptation of a 616 shell when I find one!

Pennsyfan! That little Plymouth walks away with those Pullman’s! Serious muscle!

Have a great day everyone. And thanks for your posts.
