All:
Thanks for the great discussion on number boards. I did not think it would be possible to generate such a long string of postings for an item among this august group.
So, on to more epehemera...
On photos of the tender-end of K-28's, they appear to have sheet metal between the straps that are used to suspend the footboards. Is this a safety thing? I note that the 28s and perhaps 453 are the only locomotives to have this feature. Were they delivered this way?
Have at it all!
