Re: #1102

Ron Briton has a photo of these two cars (#1101 & 1102) on a truck when they first came to the SVRy and before they where rebuilt into the passenger cars that they are today. The Photo clearly shows the number 1110 and 1643 on the sides. We know these cars where turned into the #1101 and 1102 but we never knew which one was which. That is until Taylor and I noticed that you could see the old #1110 on the side of the 1101 while it was in the shop one afternoon in 2003 I believe. ( may be the reason our “SVRy forefathers” chose the new number 1101, 30 years ago, but that is just a guess. Any comment Jim?).
Now that we knew which car was the real 1110, we knew the other one was the 1643. This is the car that went home to Colorado and is now at Silver Plume.
