Hi there Switcher Saturday faithful! Your humble conductor is back, has checked his watch, and is ordering the local out of the yard! Many thanks to @RSJB18 for the assist last week!
For those unfamiliar with this thread, its a weekly homage to the smaller locomotives that are the jack-of-all-trades of railroading. Whether it's working the yard, pick up and delivery on the local, spotting cars at power plants and mills, hauling tourist passengers by day and freight by night, the Switcher locomotives do it all. These loco's are usually smaller and sometimes highly customized to their assignments, but sometimes even these guidelines are turned on their head, such as the giant PRR transfer diesels, or the Amtrak Dash 8 diesels used to make up the auto train.
As to this thread, the guidelines are to have fun, keep things somehow Switcher related, and use pictures and videos you have permission to post on the ogr forum.
For myself, I need some snacks for the game this weekend. So here's the R.O.W. saddle tanker bringing some M&M's into the yard.
So please, share your photos and videos. Have fun everybody!
