I think that is the only picture I have seen of a 1500 with a water car. I am not totally sure they are using it as an aux car or if it is on a work train or what.
Concerning the photograph of 4-8-2 SLSF 1502 in the Frisco Archives posted 8/31/2015, I notice what appears to be square holes at the front of the cylinders. Please see the following posted image by Arthur B. Johnson. https://frisco.org/mainline/2015/08/31/4-8-2-1502-3/ Most of the other 1500 locomotive photographs I have seen show what looks like a drawdown bolt to attach the cover on the cylinders. Any ideas for this old man? Thanks, Dan
Well, that is what happens when your eyes are shot! To late at night to be looking at photographs. I am kilted this weekend in Buffalo, MO. So the thinking cap in not on! Thanks for clarifying ! Dan
