It rained here most of the day and the temperature has dropped into the sixties, both of which are welcome. Taking a dip into the SP time machine slide boxes this evening yielded three EMD yard switcher images.
First up is a pair of SW-8’s that I photographed in San Diego, CA in March of 1971 drilling some cars.
Secondly we travel back to Dallas on February 3rd in 1973 where we see a NW-2 switching cars at Milller Yard. Notice the water can for switchmen on the ground on the walkway in front of the engineer.
Lastly still at Miler Yard but four years later on June 11th in 1977 a pair of Cotton Belt SW-1200’s are resting in the engine terminal between assignments.
I will see what other SP gems I can come up with for Monday’s entry.
