Chessie System (the Sleeping Kitten) is one of the forerunners of CSX (and the current Norfolk Southern). Chessie's core was eastern Maryland, but west of Chesapeake Bay; B&O was based in (naturally) Baltimore, but west of the Kitten. Note the Western Maryland loco - WMR handled Maryland and that section of Appalacian "coal country" (Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and part of eastern Ohio).

I never actually saw em run. In the shop we took em apart and put em back together. B&O Newark Oh, 1957-58. Nelson Buskey was the foreman, I worked as apprentice to Art Davis. I ran back and forth getting wrenches and other tools for him; I did change a lot of michiana filters. They let me put in a few cylinder liners (and I never 'skinned an oring seal!!) I helped replace a bunch of heads. 300lb torque on the 7:1 gearbox to get the crab nuts tight. Woulda stayed but when they got rid of ALL the apprentices and even tradesmen in 58 I had no choice. With a brand new fleet of 50 A units they wewnt gonna need too much maintenance for quite some time. They only kept journeymen in the most crucial trades.. Those were the halcyon days of my youth.

Tiger Rule seldom used couplers can be a pain to get latched. It's best to only open one knuckle. A little speed will shake the pin into place also. Since these guys are volunteers and not railroaders, they don't know some of the tricks. Having some experienced guys around would help them learn.
