<br /> <br /> <br /> Dear Sir, <br /> <br /> <br /> There was a Photo in Trains or Railroad Magazine years back of a Rear Shot of a Long Island???Suburban Service Steam Locomotive with a Large Steam Dynamo on the Tender behind the Coal Bunker which was for Lighting the Coaches thru Jumper Cables. <br /> <br /> <br /> This Dynamo appeared to have a Muffler to cut down the Turbine Scream when Operating. <br /> <br /> <br /> The Locomotive Lights would be Handled by a separate Dynamo atop the Boiler as in Standard Locomotive Practice of the Era. <br /> <br /> <br /> Would be Interesting to find out what Powered the Suburban Coach Lights when Steam Replaced by Diesels on these Jobs. <br /> <br /> <br /> Separate Diesel Set or Main Locomotive Diesel? <br /> <br /> <br />
