Nostalgia & History > B&W Switcher Saturday: Steam; Diesel; Diesel-Hydraulic

A little switcher variety from B&W photos acquired more than 50 years ago.  The disclaimer is the same as before:  if there's a name on the back of the print, I'll list it but don't know if that individual is the photographer or simply the seller.

1) CGW 0-6-0 #10, unknown location, no date (30's or 40's), H.W. May.

2) BOCT  NW2 #9511, Grand Central Station Chicago, no specific date (1959 - 1963 range), photographer unknown.

3) CN diesel-hydraulic #1000 built by MaK in Germany, Montreal, 6/17/56, Peter Cox.  One of a kind demo (don't know if it was marketed as a switcher or road unit), CN did not purchase any.  More information in a thread over on the Trains board.

I appreciate the B&OCT photo!

With a classification like LR-7a, CN apparentky was using it as a road switcher.
