Here are three photos of S Wye, which are contained in a single file. The lower photo is the last in a series of the doubling operations up the grade to Larch. This represents the second trip up the hill, and is about the weight limit for the articulateds over this section.
We have the tank car shown in the upper right, which most of you will recognize as being off the D&RGW. We also have the caboose and the tender.
I am not sure which collection these originally came from.
