Mark Redmond	General	This must be an early version of the cab forward. Looks like it was modified.	7/12/2012 11:08:10 PM

Gary Everhart	General	I agree. Similar to SP4294 in the California State Museum but definitely has a cruder, more homemade looking cab on this one. And notice the trailing tender - unusual in its own right!	7/13/2012 5:55:25 AM

Robert Farkas	General	This is one of your best. It's an excellent shot of a rare locomotive.	7/13/2012 11:48:56 AM

Fred Stuckmann	General	what a piece of work.	7/15/2012 8:39:22 AM

James D Mehl	General	What great work of "Art"!	6/14/2013 8:23:34 AM

The locomotive is an MC-6 manufactured by Baldwin in 1912. The MC-6's were assigned the road numbers 3029-3043. Espee had previously purchased Baldwin "cab forwards" in the following model designations: MC-1, MC-2, and MC-4 that go back to 1908. Thanks to Mark Redmond (and friend) for this info.
