    4-8-4 SLSF 1508

    A busy morning at Lindenwood Yard, MP 7.1, in St. Louis, MO!

    If you look carefully at the this shot, you will see that fully 20% of the 1500s are in the photograph.

    There is one peeking its tender out of the roundhouse. I do not know who took this one,
    but it is certainly a 1500 day at the old round house.

    SLSF 4-8-2 1508

    Double heading on a coal train with what is listed as 4-8-4 SLSF 4104, which means this is probably 2-8-2 SLSF 4104.

    Location is near Valley Park, MO, MP 17.9, on the Rolla Subdivision.

    Date is May 1946.

    Photographer may have the initials LS or FFA, as those two abbreviations appear on the envelope the negative came in without explanation.
