PM GE 70-ton switcher #21 at Traverse City, March 1950

The PM's three GE 70-ton switchers were purchased to handle freight on its light rail branches. They were not terribly successful, however, and were sold off in 1953.

One of the regular assignments for numbers 20-21 was as the local switcher in Traverse City.
