John

At first glanvce I didn't think it was Al Lyons and now I stilll don't

In your enlargment it looks like possibly Myron Henry

I don't think Al Lyons would have laid of the Silverton, more miles and or overtime.

If the work train was an assigned job then there is a good possibllty that is Al Lyons.
