Sooblue I know exactly the pic you are talking about, I have a copy of it somewhere. Who knows where? Trainnut484's CRS is working down here too. LOL. <br /> <br />I meant to post the outshop date for 1111, the pic I have shows April 1930. The Four Aces's bell sits in one of Timken's buildings. <br /> <br />Thanks everyone for your comments, keep up the good work. <br /> <br />Do any of you railroaders have any comments about 4 8 4 s you might have had the opportunity to run or fire? I volunteered in the Arkansas Railroad Museum at Pine Bluff and worked in one of the passenger cars as a car host during our annual run to Tyler, Texas. The Cotton Belt 819 ( a 4 8 4 ) always ran great. The only problem I know of is one year the whistle broke and had to be replaced. One of the early whistles sounded really bad, but it was replaced with a better sounding one. <br /> <br />Hey look there, a b a d comment about a 4 8 4. I had forgotten about the whistle problem. <br /> <br />Stay safe, and always Look, Listen, and Live. <br /> <br />Please remember the armed service people defending our country.
