BM 1213 with new one-of-kind paint job. Built 1/49, one of four that had MU connections and assigned to Mechanicville for hump and transfer duty. The transfer service was between Mechanicville and NYC Selkirk Yard. The NW-2's were the heaviest of any of B&M switchers (249,000 lbs) and their MU capability made them ideal for this type of duty.
