I shot these today at a railcar repair facility in town called TSI. Maybe someone here is an industrial loco fan. The black 1940 GE is still in use!

Cool pics!

Are those Stewart Warner oil pressure and temp gauges from Auto Zone in the little critter?

Gotta love the switches on the dash, too!

What a beater!

I'm guessing that the critter hasn't seen any TLC is a while... :D

To say the least!

That thing got patched together up until the day it died, would be my guess.

I wonder what it was? It is a cute lil rascal!

Where is it?

"That little guy" (the yellow one), I'm 90% certain is a standard gauge GE 25 ton switcher. Bears striking resemblance to my Grandt Line one, which makes me want to weather mine up, add the faded "SP 03", then add a patch for my dad's railroad.
