Here is 015. Previously I had thought there was a single brace, as only two bolts were visible. Chris has proven to us that two braces are located above one another on the rear of the blade! The orange dots indicate locations where the new, large outboard blade is connected to a second blade. The flange knife is noticeably absent in the Jackson photo. Mike Trent believes that the Priest flangers on the locomotives obviated the need for the knife on 015, and it was removed and the blade placed in the lowered position.
