Reply to "Switcher Saturday: 2018-Jan-06"

Happy Switcher Saturday everyone. Hope all of us in the cold tundra of the Northeast stay warm! 

My contribution this week is a comparison of B&O's Dockside switcher, four of which were built by Baldwin, originally B&O class C-16. Of the four, two would be reclassified as C-16a where they no longer were tank locomotives, instead the received slope-back tenders. #99 was one of the two to undergo being rebuilt. 

Here is #99 classified as class C-16 (tank engine, no tender).

Here is #99, rebuilt/reclassified as class C-16a (no longer a tank engine/with tender).
