J Builders plate on ebay

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

I wouldn't think the builder's number (390) would be the same as the engine
number (several people have that this build number corresponded to "J" 613).
Most builders (and I take it that would include Roanoke) numbered their
engines in sequential order of manufacture- so that would be the 390th
engine build by the Roanoke Shops?

I read through the ad on eBay and I don't believe the plate's seller really
knows what he has. If its a class J N&W builder's plate then the number on
it (390) does not correspond to any of the class-J locomotives, since they
were numbered 600-613 (or 614? I don't remember). I don't know what engine
390 was, but it wasn't a J....

There is a J builder's plate on ebay.  Since I can't afford it, maybe one of
you can.  Out of curiosity, to which J was this plate made for?
