Western Railroad Discussion > This industrial switcher may soon be replaced

Here is a Johnson Clounty Airport Commission switch engine working a cut of cars this morning at the New Century Air Center industrial park switch yard on the east side of Gardner, KS. I think this switch engine is more than 60 years old. I've heard for several months that the aging engine is due to be replaced and that the replacement locomotive should be arriving soon.


Thought I would share this short video clip before  JCCC switcher 1992 disappears from yard service.
