Saw this nice switcher this week at the Port of Baltimore while I was waiting to be loaded. Works the tracks inside and outside of the secure port areas, so boxcars and lots of containers off the ships.

Very nice! You should post on Switcher Saturday next week!

My iPad shows the picture a little too dark to make it out for sure, is the other loco shown double-headed with the switcher a recabbed Geep, or a CF7?

Bill it looks to be an ex BNSF GP7u. Since Canton only has 2 GP7's and only one with the new paint, this is the likely loco.

Canton railroad lists it as a GP16, an updated GP7.
I did prefer the paint scheme from the early 2000’s.

I knew you'd have the right answer Jim.
