General Discussion / Vehicles used for Switching
« 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
