| Title: |
Malabar Switcher at the 49th St Wigwag |
| Description: |
The 49th Street Wigwag is probably the wigwag protecting the most track today (nine tracks) of Malabar Yard. The local works the yard and the area to the north and east. At one time, stacks and manifests came through here on the way to the Harbor, but today, the furtherst anything goes is about another 100 yards south. The train is about to stop to let the brakie off, before proceeding across the crossing. |

| Title: |
Old Faithful or the Malabar Switcher? |
| Description: |
There was some weird plume of white smoke (maybe unburned fuel) errupting out of one the Malabar Switchers GP25s this day. Very sad that nothing goes any further south than those engines are in this shot. |
