Here are some videos I took in the Orange Hall yesterday. Although not a switcher the first video is a short of the new Atlas O 2-8-0 Consolidation that's now in the new Atlas O catalogue. It's a fine looker IMHO!! I'm sure at some point there were many 2-8-0 locomotives who served as switchers in yards, and on local freight jobs.

@trumpettrain Patrick,

Thanks for the mention (and Bob too @pennsyfan ). Many 2-8-0 steamers became road switchers or even just switchers late in their careers. So it being here is just fine.

The Atlas 2-8-0 looks great and thanks for the video. My main concern is it has 3 chuffs/rev. I know this is not a big deal for most, but kind of odd. Hopefully their production engine has four.
