Another interesting detail that shows up when zooming in is that the main driver has a flanged tire. The same wheel set had blind tires at CRRM.

I note that #346 also received (1/2) flanges on her nominally blind center drivers while on the RGS in the '40's. I wonder if there was a supervisor with an aversion to blind drivers on the RGS during that time, per this thread; [ngdiscussion.net].
