There is an unfortunate quality in some railfans who seem to believe that they are saving something by stealing it.
Some seem to believe "If the railroad had really wanted that bell or whistle or some other item they never would have secured it with such a small weld".

As regards the numbers on the #19s Tender I am particularly interested in what color they were.
I saw them years ago but do not recall their color and apparently did not take the relevant photo.
