CP locomotive 48
From: KyleKWyatt@gmail.com
Does anyone have a nice reference scan photo of CP 4-4-0 #48 after the
Stevens rebuild that they'd be willing to share? Doesn't need to be anything
hi-res, just something that will show up well on a screen when opened.
CP 48 4-6-0T, built by Grant, later 4-6-0 with tender, was rebuilt in 1883 by A. J. Stevens as a prototype for his 4-4-0s of the mid-late 1880s. I'm looking for a photo after the 1883 rebuild. A photo before the rebuild would be interesting, too.
Might I suggest a systematic photo roster of the CP locos for the web site? You won't get every one, but you'll get a surprising number of them.

Thanks for the suggestion of a systematic photo roster of the Central Pacific locomotives. Great idea!
