Centipedes, Sharks, what a great way to start off the thread, Charlie.
Bruce, your Conail switchers are sure busy.

For this week we have a Reading Mikado working a milk train consisting of wooden express reefers past the Water Tower.
Loco is an older IHC 2-8-2 Mikado in Reading. I have not run this loco in some time. It took me some time to get it to run smoothly. The tender had electric pickups on the wheels. They were not for the loco as there is wiring between the two. They were causing a drag on the tender wheels. Once I removed them the loco ran far better.

Sadly this will be the first and last train ride for the occupants in that first car.
