Re: DRG168 first run!! Sunshade ?

Nicely restored Stathi, and not forgetting your crewmembers as well.

Will you be adding the Enginedriver's canvas Sunshade? It wasn't on the 168 in the earlier paint scheme photos of the President Taft Special.

It was fitted over the rear window in Dave Grandt's photo [ngdiscussion.net] but lengthened to both windows sometime while in the post-1923 repaint scheme.
Another photo of 168 taken at Salida sometime between 1917-23 show no Sunshade on the Fireman's side nor does the Otto Perry 1923 photo show one, however the last run of the Lake City Branch shows 168 in 1933 fitted with such.
