Hmmm, CNJ had SW-1's, and NW-2's. I wonder what other Northeast, NYC tri-state roads had them?
 I really like switch engines.

If Arnold made all the roads that had SW-1's , one could go broke buying that collection . Some were passed to private industries which probably were the holders of most of them the older they got .

Richie:  And then there's GN 5103, which could make a collectors set all by itself. 

renumbered GN 77
renumbered/repainted BN 77 (1st)
sold to WWV as WWV 77
sold to Frisco as SLSF 10
reacquired by BN in merger as BN 70
assigned BNSF 3300, but
sold to US Borax in California, number unknown.

BN 77 (2nd) was ex-SLSF SW7 302

Be well

Photos are done - still doing the writeup - unexpected delays. Almost ready.  Worth the wait.  :D
