Not all of the web links were updated when they made these changes. This may cause some of the problems you are having. Thanks Ron and everyone, that worked.

Jimmy Lisle January 1, 2010 Hello, Jimmy: My understanding is that the photos have been removed from VPI. Norfolk Southern moved them to another archival collection, but I'm uncertain where.

Date: Sat, 2 Jan 2010 18:38:14 -0500 From: nw-modeling-list at nwhs.org To add to this discussion on K2 tender trucks here is an image from the VA Tech collection of 122 when she looked to be brand new at Roanoke Shops. http://spec.lib.vt.edu/imagebase/norfolksouthern/full/ns870.jpeg The previously posted photo of 129 is dated 02-04-46 so I would say the engine was newly streamlined in that photo. Here are photos from my collection, 129 at Hagerstown 02-20-54, and 130, 131 same location, different date. Does it look like the bearing boxes have been changed or the trucks replaced by this time? I have also noticed that the spoked lead truck wheels on all the K2's were replaced at some date. Can Ed King or Col Jeffries shed some light on the changes? --Rick Morrison The message is ready to be sent with the following file or link attachments: NW K2a Hagerstown226.jpg K2a 129 Hagerstown '54252.jpg K2a 130 Hagerstown 253.jpg Note: To protect against computer viruses, e-mail programs may prevent sending or receiving certain types of file attachments.
