Where's the 1522 shot? I might have been standing next to you (will check my slides when I get home).

Sorry I cannot say for sure…I wasn't driving the rental and was busy loading film when we came to this spot…of course somewhere in Missouri.

I can't quite place the location, perhaps around Rolla, but it's on the 1990 NRHS Convention Newburg trip. I'll have to study it some more John.

The 1269 picture looks like it was taken in Sacramento. Note the missing handrails by the water filler hatch. I have seen it with two different styles of handrails on the tender. This must have been when they were making the transition between the two.

The shot I was thinking of is at Bourbon, and has a slightly different background, but given the lighting, smoke, and other details, is probably pretty close to Chris' shot.

Could be around Rosati or Dillon.

I remember climbing around on the 1269 when I was a kid- it was displayed in Nichol Park in Richmond, California. In the early sixties they put a fence around it after someone was hurt- broken arm I think- playing on it. Nice to see a photo of it when it was at the CSRM.
