Reply to "Switcher Saturday: 2017-Nov-25"

Happy SWSAT everyone!!  Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!  

Rich - very nice SW900!!  Got to love the B&O!!  Glad to see you are progressing with your railroad.  Do you hum " Ive been working on the Railroad" as you are constructing?  Perhaps the Lionel boxcar with the harmonica playing hobo would be something to put on your Christmas list.  I have one which visitors seem to enjoy hearing.  The problem is that the hobo seems to have forgotten the bridge to the tune.  I think probably too much smoke went up his  stack in his younger years, if you know what I meanIMG_3977IMG_3975IMG_3974IMG_3976IMG_3980IMG_3981IMG_3985IMG_3983

Bob - I hope you enjoy your new BL-2 once it arrives!   I bought the MTH Premier version 10 years ago ( can't believe its been that long ago ).  Bought at MB Kleins in Cockeysville, Md.  Being very excited, I  drove directly to the B&O museum so I could compare my model with the prototype which was sitting in the same place as your photograph at the time.  Wish I'd have had someone take a photo at the time with me holding the MTH version while standing next to the prototype.   I hope you enjoy yours as much as I'm still enjoying mine.   I have a WbB BL-2 demonstrator now on my radar

Tom - number 227 looks great!  

Dave - nice photos of prototypes as always!!  That tree is small???  Look forward to seeing your Christmas tree layout photos.  I'm that railroad will be well switchered! 

JHZ563 - very nice photos prototype!  

This week on the Free State Junction Railway the Pennsylvania 44 tonner is back in town doing some switching of Pennsy coal hoppers onto the team track.   Have a great week everyone!
