A little late for an FEF post, but been busy with Veterans Day events.

Here ia a shot taken a while ago of a couple of Pennsy's numerous B-type switchers.

On the left is a K-Line B6 and on the right is an AtlasO B28.

The first B1 showed up in 1869, with B2-5 made through 1893.  The B6 came along in 1902 with the last one built in 1916.  B-types ranged from B1 through B8, and B21 through B35.  The only ones to make it to the end of steam were some B6sa/B6sb engines, and maybe some B8s rebuilt into tank engines.

One reason for the late post was supporting my cadets at an Old Glory flag ceremony at American Legion Post 170, MD.

Good looking front ends Joe.

Do you have any of those rail inspection trucks from Lionel like the Ford or Dodge trucks with lights ?   

I've seen them advertised but I didn't know how they would work on the DCS/ TIU variable outlets with MTH ps2 and ps3 engines setting on a yard.    I don't have a yard cutoff from the mainline.

Have a great weekend.
