It would seem that certain Milwaukee diesels earned the moniker "Old Smoky" as well. A number of FM diesel switchers and light roadswitchers worked their final days at the former division point of Marquette, Iowa.

Shoving cars around the yard, they were known to fog up the valley of Bloody Run Creek. The title was well-earned.
