General Electric 44 Ton Diesel Switcher. April 1984.

This photograph was taken many years ago, by a railfan acquaintance I used to know in the 1980's.
A guy named Jeff who I attended high school with, took this photograph in Chicago Illinois USA, during April of 1984.
The little privately owned , or leased industrial diesel switch engine, is a G.E 44 ton locomotive. It is seen spotting cars at the R.H Donnelley Publishing Company near 22nd Street and Lakeshore Drive. R.H Donnelley publishes the Chicago "Yellow Pages" telephone directory.
