	GE 44 Ton Switcher - Locomotives - irritatedVowel.com
		The Bachmann GE 44 Ton Switcher is a servicable little model.
		Western Maryland Railway had two 44 ton switchers, numbered 75 and 76.
		It's a bit on the noisy side, and the detail is, well, rough (raised panel lines, hand rails that attach through doors, fore and aft windows far too small, overscale "chunky" detail, etc), but not too bad from a distance.

	Lionel's postwar 44-ton switcher
		GE developed what became known as the diminutive 44-tonner in response to a labor agreement in 1937 that mandated the presence of a fireman on any locomotive weighing at least 90,000 pounds.
		All we can say is that these switchers filled a niche for a few years and took their lumps before fading away like a canceled sitcom.
		Approximately 350 of these switchers were produced between 1940 and 1956 and sold to railroads throughout the United States.

	Trains.com - Spectrum GE 44 ton switcher. Thoughts????
		I like my Southern 44 tonner, but it might be a little bit of a sentimental thing, having ridden in the cab of the prototype at a local Atlanta train museum with my then 4 year old son.
		I have two 44 tonners and am fond of the real ones and the models.
		This of course increases maximum pulling power, but also helps with dead spots on the track--if one 44 tonner hits a dead spot the other one can typically shove it over and keep right on going.

		This diesel-electric switcher was built in 1932 by British Thomson-Houston Company for use at Ford Motor Company's plant at Dagenham, Essex* (near London), in the United Kingdom.
		Incidentally, it has devolved that British Thompson-Houston's American parent built the 1893 GE #1 which was exhibited at the Chicago Columbian Exposition in that year (she survives at the Museum of Transport in St. Louis, Missouri).
