I know there are some former New York Central people who participate on here so I though it would be fitting to post the
following link to an obituary from this morning's Times Union in Albany which I read on a daily basis.
Bob Sweitzer was one good railroader although I did not have much dealing with him during my career with Penn Central
and Conrail.

Saddened to learn of BOBs death. Worked with him at NIAGARA yard, and at A.E.P. yard at SELKIRK. Always regarded his constant attention to accurate forwardings of the customers freight vs the HELTER SKELTER handling of JIM PAIGE......regds to his memory.....LARRY BAGGERLY
