This is not quite true...

Your brothers engine was the 5482... the other engine is 5842... a bit dyslexic? ;-)a

And where some of them start out...

Thanks for the shot you put up. It reminded me that I had this.

This Electro Motive sign was saved from the wrecking ball at almost the very last moment. Sorry for the very bad HDR shot, but the sun/shadow contrast was about the worst photo taking condition possible. Illinois Railway Museum, Union, IL., 2013.

I debated posting this one for a few weeks now. It was unfortunately a fatality accident.

Thank you hammer418, it was my first time capturing a steam loco, I did it so that I can have a print done for my 87 year old father as he worked at Derby Locomotive Works for many years and I'm sure he worked on this particular one
