Title: Vehicles used for Switching
Post by: sswcharlie on January 31, 2014, 09:55:19 PM
Hi

1950-70s era

Would like to see photos/articles etc that show the switching locos and other types (eg  trackmobile, winch, tired tractors, etc) of vehicles used to move/spot express cars including REA equipment, in express yards.  In the Chicago area.  What were the name of the yards that mostly did express cars?  Did REA have a loco allocated to them?

Thanks
