The recent torque reversal in the accretion-powered pulsar 4U 1626-67 (ATel #2095), which occurred after 18 years of steady spin-down, was centered near MJD 54500 (2008 Feb 4) and lasted about 150 days. This was simultaneous with an increase of flux reported by Krimm et al. (ATel #1426). We observed the spin-up first in the Fermi/GBM data (see our web page). Using Swift/BAT observations from 2004 up to the present, we have resolved the frequency history of this source through the torque reversal (Camero-Arranz et al.
