Nostalgia & History > Do You Like SW1s AlsoDate: 12/02/16 20:41 Do You Like SW1s Also Author: MartyBernard For what ever reason, SW1s are my favorite switcher. Maybe it's because they were easy to identify for a young railfan (and for an old railfan too!). Those tool box looking things across the front and back were a dead giveaway.Oh, and of course, the single stack.
Anyhow, here is CB&Q 9140 in the Aurora, IL coach yard next to the roundhouse on June 20, 1965. She was built in 1939. Enjoy, Marty Bernard Edited 3 time(s). Last edit at 12/02/16 20:53 by MartyBernard. Date: 12/02/16 22:28 Re: Do You Like SW1s Also Author: krm152 What's not to like! They're great!
