Switcher Saturday.
Author: hank

A MP15AC switcher in Milwaukee Road paint working on the SOO Line in Muscatine, Iowa April 1987.  Gotta love the elecric bell they had on those units.  Built by EMD in 1976.

Thanks for viewing.

Thanks for sharing! Hadn’t heard one of those early electronic bells before. Together with that newer, out of spec Prime 920 horn, it’s an auditory mess that somehow feels just about like what you’d expect from the dying Milwaukee (which of course was already dead by this time).

Another enjoyable video!
Love when that bell stops and tapers off, each note lower than the previous, like a Loony Toons contraption/robot running out of energy!
