James Buchkovich General Thank you for your continued efforts in uploading these great photos of years gone by! 5/31/2014 10:27:21 AM
Stu Nicholson General Love those Vanderbilt tenders. 5/31/2014 12:57:31 PM
Robert Beichler General I agree with James. I beleive this is one of the engines SP built from 2-6-6-2s that didn't work for them. They were the last and heaviest Mogals ever built. 5/31/2014 8:31:59 PM
Fred Stuckmann General Count me in with James. 6/1/2014 11:07:12 AM
