On Aug 6th 2016, had the opportunity to operate a GE 44 ton switcher at the Danbury Railway Museum in Danbury, CT. The "Hands on the Throttle" program had just released that day and I was the first person to participate! It was a great experience, highly recommended for any buff. For $50 you get some great history and safety briefing from Tom McCullough, the Engineer and his Conductor. They let you operate a section of the yard back and fourth multiple times.
