Actually I'm going to say this is likely the 1899-1900 winter season. In fact, it would have had to have been after Nov. 2nd 1899 as it has been relettered for C&S. At this point former DL&G 064 was now C&S 01. That winter was particularly brutal and the C&S was awaiting the arrival of their new plow from Cooke Loc. works (due to arrive in Dec. iirc.) That plow was 03 and would be Broad gauged a few years later. Of course the Jull was numbered 02. The engine behind the plow might be 68 - I'm sure it was a Baldwin. It would retain a McConnell /diamond stack until after 1904.
