Well, in war all bets are off. there's also photos of MP & D&RGW
doubleheaded on Tennessee Pass. And of the DM&IR Yellowstones and D&RGW
articlulateds double and triple headed. Weather also produces strange
sights such as the FW&D 2-8-2's doing flood duty long after they were
"retired". Then leases make even stranger sights, like the AT&SF 2-10-4's
double headed with PRR 2-10-4's. Always exceptions.
