I am looking for proto info on the B&O street switchers used in Baltimore in the 1940's. They moved freight cars along city streets at the docks and produce terminals. They had a center cab and wide solid rubber tires. I think they had grooves in the tire centers so that they could run on exposed ties rail to pick up the freight cars. As i recall the were steered with a ship type spoked wheel. They ran on Pratt and Lombard Streets. Thanks in advance ....... <br />Shamuga
