Steam & Excursion > WP 4-6-6-4 #406 ('52)Date: 06/08/19 07:09 WP 4-6-6-4 #406 ('52) Author: valmont WP #406 @ Salt Lake City on Aug. 10, 1952
wplives.com/index showed that #406 was vacated in May 1952, however if the date on this negative was correct there's coal in that tender in August 1952 Date: 06/08/19 11:17 Re: WP 4-6-6-4 #406 ('52) Author: krm152 That,s one rugged looking Challenger.

They had a much larger firebox than the UP's due to the type of coal they had available.

Also keep in mind that date on the negative may possibly be the date it was developed, not the date it was taken? (I could be completely wrong about that by the way!) Jim Baker Riverside, CA |
