Nice! Looks like they're acquired an F unit! 👍👍

They did, but sadly it's been out of service for several years now. It was more poplar with the fans than the crews - with no walkways, it was just about useless as a switcher.

Right place at the right time, nothing more. The F hasn't run in several years, though it's still on the property.
