Reply to "Switcher Saturday 12-31-22"

Yay! Last SwSat of the year!

Great posts so far! This week I’m posting a few pics from an ops session I attended about a month ago on a HO scale Civil War era layout. I worked a local freight that handled all switching from Big Shanty to Chattanooga TN on the WARR. My engine was the “Cattawissa” a 4-4-0. At the time these would have been the jack of all trades do freight and passenger work as well as switching. Oh and all the coupling was link and pin which ment a steady hand and eye strain. Since it had a cow catcher in from a long bar was the front coupler for the head end switching.

Have a great weekend. Happy new years and I can’t wait to see what you post.
