Hand tinted N&W photo

[NW Mailing List]

Rick, I appreciate you sharing your knowledge of N&W passenger equipment,
consist, and operations on this list. I always read your post with interest.
How long have you been studying details of N&W's passenger operations? Have
you studied all pre-1964 divisions?    John Garner

Subject: Hand tinted N&W photo

 

When the posting about the hand tinted photo by Bruce Fales at Shaffers
Crossing appeared, I remembered my photo.  I bought this 11x14 print from
Fales at a Gaithersburg railroadiana show about 1980.  N&W's presence in
Hagerstown is significant because I was born there and have strong family RR
connections with the WM.  I did grow up in sight of the N&W, so I have
collected a lot of N&W images at Hagerstown.  This one of train 13 was dated
August 31, 1947.  Notice Fales name heat stamped into the print just below
the locomotive.  In his lifetime, he probably never dreamed how easy it
would be to edit it out.
