	SP/SSW Diesel Class Explanation
		For example, the first diesel road-switchers acquired by the SP, the Baldwin DRS6-4-1500 units of 1948, were assigned class DEF-100 (I think).
		A somewhat similar scheme was applied to the switchers.
		SP changed their system a couple of times, starting with the first deliveries of diesel switchers, these were designated DES, which I assume stands for Diesel Electric Switcher, this was later shortened to DS.

		Many of the successful early diesels were switchers, and experiments to mount a diesel engine on a locomotive frame to drive electric traction motors dated back the 1920s.
		Alco rolled out two "catalog model" switchers in April 1940: the S 1 was a non-turbo charged 660-hp unit and the top-of-the-line unit was the 1,000-hp S2.
		Switchers operate at low speeds and don't run up the miles like road locomotives, so they usually last a long time.

	Train Notes - NE Rails
		It developed 2000 HP and rode on four two-axle road trucks similar to those used on Baldwin road switchers.
		They were covered because the horses were frightened by the motion of the mechanism, and were referred to as "dummies".
		They were also expecting the following B30-7As to provide the same 3000 hp as their SD40-2, but generating it with four fewer cylinders and transmitting it to the rail through two fewer traction motors.

		From the class, it’s a switcher, 1,000 hp, equipped with LIRR ASC, thus it could roam LIRR’s electric territory.
		RE: last week’s “The way we were,” That is indeed a Long Island Rail Road Baldwin 1,000 hp switch engine (I believe it’s a VO-1000 model).
		It was acquired by the railroad in 1948 and was the only locomotive of its kind on the LIRR; the railroad acquired several Baldwin VO-660 660 hp switchers at the same time.

	Switching back to Panther - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)
		Well, being a recent switcher (although, I've used Panther extensively) I can tell you that I've had a few issues here and there.
		However, they're nothing compared to the problems I've had in the past, present, and I'm sure future with Windows.
		Tiger's still heaps better than Panther (which I was happy with) but I'm afraid I depend on iDisk on three Macs being in sync.
