N&W K1 in moviw

[NW Mailing List]

K1 100 was stencilled in May 1955 for the C&O on its left tender flank for the movie "Giant". There is a photo of that engine with the C&O stencilling on page 149 of the book, N&W: Giant of Steam. I believe there was an article about the 100 and its role in this movie in a back issue of "The Arrow". Someone else will have to give the issue.
