Photo: Team Tracks With A Real Team (1927) A photo from the Gateway To Oklahoma History website: https://gateway.okhistory.org/ark:/67531/metadc1300296/m1/1/?q=frisco Description: "In 1927 trucks, Model T's and horse-drawn wagons bustled around the old Frisco marshaling yards." Good assortment of boxcars, too. Bob Chaparro Hemet, CA

Interesting choice of words in their caption. I think of "marshaling yards" to be more British than North American, but I don't see a shunter is sight :-(
I agree with Bob - a very interesting assortment of boxcars. Thanks for sharing it! Chuck Soule

Chuck, don't you mean Switcher? Shunter is a British term. All the better if we have a scarcity of locomotives, it gives us more time to look at the freight cars.

That was my tongue-in-cheek choice - shunter in the marshalling yard...
And you're right - the lack thereof gives us a chance to admire the freight cars longer... Chuck Soule
