Remarks & Notes 
A school trip gets ready to depart from Green Bank station behind the Wilmington & Western's grand old SW1. WWRC #114 was built in 1940 by the Electro-Motive Corporation (EMC, not EMD) for the Lehigh Valley. It was sold to the Maryland Port Authority and worked as a dock switcher for a number of years in Pocomoke City. In 1974, No. 114 was moved to the Ocean City Western Railroad in Ocean City, Maryland, where it worked briefly in tourist service, until the railroad closed in the late 1970s. In the 1980s, it found it's way to Greenbank.
