I have a nice photo of a steam-powered freight, no. 258, but cannot find that train number in the timetables I have. Can anyone identify it? TIA. Tony Thompson...
In a 1964 timetable I have, #258 is a second class daily freight from Denison to Englewood. Of course this was way past the steam era. Charles Weston San...
... Thank you, Charles. I guess this illustrates the era problem; I have a 1962 timetable which shows no 200-number 2nd class trains, only 300-number trains,...
... I can say that in 1928 #258 was a Saugus-LA Yard 2nd class freight (Pacific Lines) I can say that in 1926 #258 was a Lampasas-Burnet mixed train (T&L...
... Tony, train #258 was a second class freight running from Ennis, Texas to Hearne. #257, of course, was from Hearne to Ennis. This is from a March 16,...
The same data appears in ETT No. 36 (1942) and 45 (1946.) Both timetables show arrival times in Hearne at 7:30 AM. Evidently eastbound traffic from the Dalsa...
Do not overlook the reality that the T&L Lines and the Pacific Lines were two different operating entities with, as an example, each having its own operating...
In my dad's old time book there are a number of entries for trains #257 and #258. An entry for #257, dated 5/6/1941 shows MSGR - Sherman & Dennsion, time on...
... During the 1920's there were at least two schedules with the No 258 on the T&NO. As Ken stated No 258 was the Lampasas-Burnet mixed (on the Austin...
... No idea of the date, but as the engine is 973, I'm doubting that it's the Lampasas mixed <g>. The train is a mixed freight but aways back in the consist is...
All, I just received/viewed my copy - absolutely wonderful work and quite evidently a true labor of love. David Bernstein has done all SP fans a tremendous...

What time period and what particular railroads or type of photographs? --RJ-- ... From: "Douglas Weiskopf" <texianbear54@...> To: TNO@yahoogroups.com ...
Doug, I do have a few photos of the Espee in Flatonia in the 80's, but that's all I got. Sorry, I wish I could do more. JP ... America/Chicago ... full ... ...
I've brought this up on the MKT and MP Groups as well, but here goes. Life Like/Walthers has so far done models of the Super Chief; Hiawatha and Empire...
... I'd like to see them do the Sunset Limited cars, along with E units for the SP modelers and PAs for the T&NO modelers. Of course, I would buy the T&NO PAs....
Look, I just finished acquiring the last car needed for my Coach Yard Sunset Limited, and they are not all even decaled yet. Let me get them finished first,...
I don't believe the Santa Fe Grand Canyon ever had Hi-Level cars regularly assigned. Might be best to get with Athearn about the Sunbeam as they are doing the...

Can't answer that, but on a somewhat related note, unless someone saved it, the two parts of the old SAP Cameron depots have been torn down or removed the last...
I think the Sunset Limited would be very sucessful because of its west coast presence and the fact that many cars werea around for Amtrak; the big thing is to...
