Reply to "Switcher Saturday: 2017-Mar-18"

Happy SWSat and Happy St. Patrick's Day to all fellow SWSat friends. Nice touch Rich, going past McSorleys.

In between coats of spackle this week I was able to get into the engine shop to work on my new PRR #8506 0-4-0 switcher. I upgraded the light in the tender to LED and re-wired it so it only operates in reverse. It will need to go back to the shop for some additional work but here she is spotting a couple of box cars. She's a real smooth runner, just needed a good cleaning and lubrication.

Rich and Andy- neat little switchers you have.

@SIRT- Great LIRR equipment. Very nice collection. I miss the old diesel fleet. Was always a surprise to see what was going to be pulling the next train. Today its nothing but M-7's and the occasional Dual-mode diesel.

@MELGAR- nice engine. I've been on the fence about getting one. The Lionel 44's look kind of plain. May have to place an order with MTH soon

Enjoy the weekend everyone- more painting for me.....
