Description
the title says it all.
Thats me standing beside NC Ports Authority #L-3, a GE 45 ton center cab switcher built in 1943 and was used by the Ports Authority in Wilmington its entire career. If you're not familiar with this locomotive, the siderods are used because this locomotive has one traction motor per truck leaving one axle power while the other one is powered off the other axle through the siderods, or by chains on other GE switchers like this one.
*EDIT* Changed the image that I had before with a newer one of me taken at Spencer Shops earlier in the year.
