Might have been painted with a lighter shade of graphite, but that’s not what I’m thinking of.

Ok Ed.  I will take a chance on what you are referring to.

How about the smoke box and stack on the Roanoke Built one.  Looks like it was painted silver.

  I was looking for differences, Bud.  The two engines are not alike.

  Yes, they both have the 18,000-gallon “fish belly” tenders.  These were applied in April 1957, so this is probably is the May 1957 trip.

  Anybody notice the difference between the two Pacifics?

  Thanks to all for info on this Clinch Valley Steam excursion on 5/4/1957!

  The following image via rrpicturesarchives (link from Rick Morrison) is a color version shot a few moments after the New York Times image it appears.

    Interesting article and video about New York photograph collection and working with google to digitize.

    If you watch the video, there is a image of N&W E2a 578 on a bridge with a double header (at 1:02). I wasn't able to find any 578 double header images in the NWHS online collection.

    Anybody recognize this location or excursion? Was the image ever used by the New York Times?
