Next time I go there I’ll ask to take it to a non glare location to get a clear shot. How about that early mail crane?
The 190-195 class locomotives were the last of the 4-4-0's to arrive (1907) on the Frisco (Colorado Southern, New Orleans, & Pacific). The Dickson-built locomotives were slightly smaller than sister 4-4-0's of the 1903-built 200-219 class (also Dickson locomotives). Following the re-org of 1916, the locomotives went to the NOT&M. The 191 became that roads number 17 and ultimately number 937, and a member of the E-69 Class. Will dig up my 1907 roster and provide the particulars. I have not been able to locate a diagram yet.
Nice. So it ended up on an MP ancestor, part of which ran in my hometown. That engine may have actually run a mile from where my house would be in the future. Sounds like a modeling project.
