I should have checked before shooting off my mouth.
Photo 4708 was taken at Omaha on September 27, 1935:

Both the above links should be one continuous line with no spaces (you
might have to cut-n-paste depending on how the lines wrap). Clicking on
the thumbnail picture on each page will get you a larger scan of the photo.
It's been a while since this was mentioned, but there are a ton of Otto
Perry (possibly his whole collection--there are photos of all the
shovelnoses, many many steamers and other stuff) and other rail
photographer pictures at the Denver Public Library's Western History
website:

When you get to the search page, the best thing I've found is a keyword
search on the loco or train's road number.
Best regards,
Randy
