That can't be first 22s headlight because it never had a pile headlight. Second 22 is the engine they think its from.
This pic proves that second 22 had a pile.
They think its 22s
BUT THATS IMPOSSABLE second 22s headlight is right here.
Second 22 was sitting the Ridgway yard in 1942 to 1946. Around 1942 or 1943 the headlight was put on 42. This is backed up by RGS story vol12 pg63 and pg91.
So who ever gave them this headlight was lying or was told wrong when they got it.
