Train Bell 872 and William E. Warden

[NW Mailing List]

Would it be possible, Gordon, to find the locomotive that the bell came
from?

The number 872 cast on the stand is almost certainly the pattern number for
that piece.  It would be the same for all locomotives that use that
particular stand.

I have recently found some items that I would like to obtain some additional
information and/or advice as to where I might seek more information.  First
I have located a bell from an unknown locomotive.  I have attached three
photographs of the bell, number 872 on outside top.  As I live near
Charlottesville and know that the original owner probably obtained the bell
here, could I assume that this is from either a Southern or C & O
locomotive?  

 

The other find are several original photographs of steam locomotives and
trains signed by William E. Warden.  The photos that I have are Southern and
C & O.  I have been able to do some research online and have found some
information about him, but I wonder if there is anyone on the list who knew
him and is familiar with his books and photos?

 

I would greatly appreciate any help or comments from the list.
