Hmmmm...an N&W G?

[NW Mailing List]

Gordon,

In my Giant of Steam book on page 107, there is a photo of G-1 #6 at 
Bluefield at a right side angle that is very similar to the one that 
approaches in the film. I think this is more than coincidence with the N&W 
style boiler tube pilot and the other similarities that you stated.
