It's #SwitcherSaturday time!!!!
Lots of us out there love switchers (shifters, docksiders, yard goats, critters, etc.), so lets keep #SwitcherSaturday (a.k.a. SWSAT) rolling!
Last week was fun, we had model switchers, prototype switchers, a switching layout, some switchers we wish were prototypes, some "44 tonners were the death of PRR steam!", and a bunch of other cool switcher stuff, just plain old good fun!

My pictures this week are of my C&O #9416 SW 900 by Atlas, I'm not sure which version I like better so I'm posting both.
Here is the protoype which apparently is right up the road from me at the B&O museum in Baltimore, I've got to take another trip up there one of these days, it's been about 2 years since I've been there.

Note: the shanty shack in my picture is from one of the other magazines (Not OGR), I liked it so much that I'm trying to make a similar shanty, but clearly my crafting skills need some help.
I'll post more pics of it as it gets closer to "done".
Please enjoy your weekend, and if you get a chance post some pictures/videos/stories of your favorite switchers!
