Since their ranks are quite diminished it was nice to hear an older EMD Switcher. A small.brewery hanging in there sorry they don't have the more classical SOOcolor mark .or the CNW Maltster in yellow

I agree! Seeing a pair of old school switchers in action was very cool to see!

My Father started working for the Erie Railroad 🛤 in December of 1945, soon 🔜 after returning home 🏡 from Burma 🇲🇲 at the end of WW2. He had a Pass, and we rode the trains 🚂 for free. The Pennsylvania Railroad’s 4-track Main Line ran on a raised bridge running from the Jersey City Waterfront, which was one block away from me in the Italian Village. This long overpass was over Railroad Avenue, now named Christopher Columbus Drive. At the end of the bridge, we could walk up ⬆️ to the track level and watch the Pensey Pups (SW 800s) work the nearby Paper 📝 Mill and freight cars coming off the bridge from barges down the river on Exchange Place. Passenger trains, usually led by Diesel-Electric EMD Cab Units, sped by at high speed, heading out to the Hackensack Bridge. By 1958, at six years old, I remember my first look 👀 at a working Steam Engine on the main line, though they were still rarely seen even at this date. The Pennsylvania RR also ran, from the waterfront, another 2-track freight line where SW 800s took freight to and from the pier, sometimes with animals in stock cars traveling out of the 6th Street Stockyards. And since overhead lines were installed here, the black and yellow Pennsylvania GG-1s could be observed cruising by. I recently discovered in a railroad book 📕 that these engines were geared ⚙️ for running at 111 Miles Per Hour! They sounded and looked even more powerful and intimidating than the EMD Cab Units. 🚞 🚥 🚃 🚦 thanks 🎌 🚩
