Good morning fellow switcher lovers!! Great videos and pics fellas and keep em coming!! JHZ563 it's great to have you back at the throttle this morning
Thanks for getting us rolling and your Halloween boxcar looks great ... did your kids put you up to posting that?
Lately I have re-discovered the beauty of post war trains. Today I feature my Lionel NW2 postwar switcher which I bought when I was in 7th grade. So here we go with " A Day in the Life of Santa Fe 616." I hope all of you and your families are sound and well. Remember when out and about ... Be safe=Be well! Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!
616 rounding Westend Curve before being swallowed up by Westend Tunnel. 
With AT&SF postwar operating barrel car in tow, 616 goes about it's switching assignment. 
In Lower Patburg, on the main, approaching WM tower. 
Up on the Mountain Division 616 is running lite.
In the hole, at a MOW camp siding, 616 clears the main for a passenger train to pass. MOW workers scurry about doing their tasks as 616 idles. 
616 joins fellow postwar locomotives for a photo op at Patsburg's commuter station. Notice the Navy and Army guys stick together only being separated by a trash can. A Virginian Train Master road switcher pokes it's nose out of the portal.
