Nostalgia & History > Gildersleeve copy slide classics (vol 150): DH-ing at HemanDate: 04/08/26 06:30 Gildersleeve copy slide classics (vol 150): DH-ing at Heman Author: santafe199 In Gildersleeve set 187, captions #29 & #30 read: “Mighty 2-10-4's on Curtiss Hill at Heman-Belva, Oklahoma, July 16, 1955”. Even with no engine numbers listed this seems to be the most likely caption for this double-heading pair…
1. AT&SF 5015 at Heman, OK on July 16, 1955. Photo by Clayton Tinkham. Tom Gildersleeve commercial Ektachrome copy slide from set #187. Scanned from the late James W. Watson collection. Thanks for looking back! Lance Garrels santafe199 Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 04/08/26 10:18 by santafe199.

Thanks for the cleanup and post.

Yeah, thanks. I even had 30 for EXIF reference. I don't know where #15 & #16 came from. Again, that's what I get for working with multiple images at the same time. I've got all details corrected... :^/ Date: 04/11/26 06:56 Re: Gildersleeve copy slide classics (vol 150): DH-ing at Heman Author: LocoPilot750 On my 5th birthday !
