The B&O roster of SW-1 switchers that entered Chessie System service included ten examples.
The C&O brought a single SW-1 to Chessie System, numbered 8401. None of the 11 EMD SW-1 switchers were on the roster in the
mid-'80s to join CSX. The now out of production Walthers SW-1, built by Roco in Austria, represented the one and only C&O
example #8401.
