odd photo

[NW Mailing List]

The only thing I know about it is that it was possibly the lowest numbered Z1b.

As a sidelight,  the 1331 was a significant Z-1b.  Anybody knowwhy? EdKing

More interesting, is if the photo is truly an original taken byPrince.

I've been intrigued by this Library of Virginiaentry about the "Richard E. Prince Jr. Railway Photograph Collection." Itcontains approx. 1,600 3.5 x 5 inch negatives, approx. 450 “116″ (2 x 4 inch)negatives, 49 5 x 7 inch silver emulsion glass-plate negatives. "The collectionis arranged in three series. Series A represents numerical index 1 through 642,and are arranged in order of engine number, lowest to highest, subcategorizedunder the proper name of each railroad line. Almost all images in Series A predate 1940. Series B is similarly arranged, containing approximately 1,600images dated between 1937 and 1948, and contains copy film of existingphotographs not taken by Prince. The glass-plate negatives constitute Series Cand are arranged in order of engine number, lowest to highest, and date fromapproximately 1907 to 1926. The Library holds a detailed though incomplete paper-based finding aid." The images have not been digitized, so are not availableonline.
