Thanks,  Hol.

Here's the link to 2932...not only did I mess up the URL, but did  a typo 
in the number.

The X1787 in 1955's number boards just means  it was operated as a helper 
engine (Cajon?) placed ahead of the road power  for the train, which was SP 
1787, and thus it was identified with the  train's designation.  The numbers 
were easily changed, and the 1955  will get its own number back -- or the 
number of another engine it is  helping -- before its next run.

Ahhh...but the number board on 2932 is the same  as it's Q #.  Can't see 
what 1907's board  says.

Cheers!

Jan,


That is the train number not the locomotive number.


The "X" stands for an extra.

Sacramento where I get too much SP.

LOL...good one, Ken...I was hoping it would stump some people a  little 
longer than that!

The other thing I found interesting was  that 1955 has a different number 
on the number board than it's Q  number...presumably because it duplicates an 
SP  engine?

Cheers!
