Thanks for the assist, Chris!

Turns out I do have some photos of C&S 71 with plow (misfiled in my hard drive):


1936


1937, Breckenridge


1937, last run East, Gold Pan


I didn't mean to slight C&S 60:  Mike's criteria, B4-Ds and larger. Besides 60 was an anomaly. That small, original Rhode Island smoke box door would have cleared a 48" plow.

Wonder why C&S 8 seem to frequently get caught with her plow down?




A question for Mike---do we know when number 74 acquired the flat smoke box front? Was it when 74 had the Walschaerts valve gear applied?

C&S 74 still has her original smoke box front with extension when she helped re-rail number 75 and her top-heavy tender during the winter of 1923-24:
