Don,

Good photo.  I will send it on to Roy.

Since we were just a 2-man crew, I was not able to get any shots of us moving.  I did send Rob Simpson up to the roof of the roundhouse with my camera to get this shot.  This might have been the same time as your shot and #4449 was not parked in the background here but maybe just this once.

Looks to be at the same time. I do have more shots of your engine and will post them shortly.

Don, Don, Don!!!!!!   That is a Turntable,,,,,,,,,,NOT a "roundtable"! King Arthur had the "roundtable".

Both photos taken nearly ;the same time. There is a man with a gray cap and a small backpack showing in both photos, over by 4449.

Oh $hit, thanks Jack. Can I blame this on the spell checker?

Martin,

The vast majority of the time 4449 was "displayed" across from the turntable, on the museum's main line. Only when we took on fuel and/or water did we move southward behind 3985 and the rest of the locomotives. Thus, just about any photos of whatever locomotive was spotted on the turntable, would have 4449 in the background.
