If I had a dime for every mis-captioned photo I've ever seen, Graham -
Even if limited to just books and websites devoted only to railroads, I could easily afford a café mocha GRANDE at the nearest Starbucks. Beebe & Cleggs's Age of Steam features at least one Challenger mis-identified as a Big Boy, Dorman & Hayden's RGS series contain more than one error in the text, and one of my own photos of double-headed K-36's pulling an excursion that was posted on a site I shall not name was for a time incorrectly captioned as having been taken on the Rio Grande's Silverton Branch . . .
