MILW Boxcab E22 A & B - Milwaukee Road
Title:  MILW Boxcab E22 A & B - Milwaukee Road
Description:  Nice shot of the E22 pair built by Alco & GE in 1915. No date, location or photographer was given. With Steven Vincent's help (see comment below), the location is the Tacoma, Washington, shops. With Mike Woodruff and Robert Anderson's help (see comments below), the date would be after 10/1955 due to the new paint scheme applied. The slide is stamped October, 1982, most likely making it a duplicate slide.

GN #364C & #350B
Title:  GN #364C & #350B
Description:  Southbound Seattle-Portland train #460 is pulling out of Tacoma's Union Station, with F7A #364C and rebuilt F7B #350B. On this day, #460 has at least 9 cars, the last of which is a NP lightweight. The GN storage mail appears to be from the #239-#241 series, and I belive it is #239. The first 3 coaches/chairs are from the #950-#979 series built by B&S in 1914 as #4500-#4529. The first is one of several from this series which were streamlined and switched from a coach to a chair configuration, the next 2 are of the modified variety with A/C installed in the mid-1930's, no way to tell without knowing the car number if these are coaches or chairs. The #364C was built in October 1950 and was later BN #9728. BN sold the engine to Precision National in November 1974. The #350B was built in November 1947, originally as a F3B, and was rebuilt after a wreck as a F7B with the same number, outshopped on June 22nd, 1952. F3A #350A was also rebuilt to a F7A after that wreck. The #350B was later BN #9701, and was sold in March 1974 to Simon & Sons. Scanned with an Epson V550 from a Kodachrome duplicate 35mm slide. Date is approximate. Photographer is unknown.
