Remarks & Notes

Looking for that perfect fixer-upper switcher? Look no further than Retsof, New York, where the former Philadelphia Bethlehem & New England NW2 #21 now resides as a burned out hulk of its former self. The unit was originally constructed in June of 1941 as PBNE #219 and later renumbered to PBNE #21. It was reportedly rebuilt in 1979 and would eventually be transferred to the South Buffalo Railroad in New York, where it was consumed by a fire at Commodity Resource in Caledonia in November 2014.
