Thread-topic: [CBQ] Tender Back-Up Light


I would agree with Pete's observations about the location.  And the weigh date on the Pennsy boxcar is 4-1951, so it's an early to mid-1950s view.

Looks like Council  Bluffs to me in both the "coming and going" images...This would be just north I 80 and just west of where I 80 and I 29 separate.  This wold be on the line heading south to P Junc and points south...Of course "pre interstate and development in the area  Engines are headed south if my assessment is correct.

Group - Some time ago, there were a series of posts covering the different kinds of headlights used by the Q and C&S. Generally speaking with the Q, it appears that as the winged Pyle National headlights replaced the cuckoo clock style lights on locomotives, the cuckoo clock lights either stayed on or were recycled to the tenders for use as back-up lights. We've all seen many images of post-Depression Q steam power with Pyle National headlights and cuckoo clock back-up lights.
 
The cuckoo clock back-up lights seemed to stay in use until they rusted out and were no longer serviceable, then Pyle National lights replaced them, too. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised when I came across the two following undated images taken of Class O-1-A No. 5130 equipped with a Pyle National headlight and an old style box back-up light that predates the cuckoo clock light. Both images were together, so I will have to assume they were taken by the same photographer in the same time period:
 
  
Neither image is identified as to location, but 5130 spent many years on Lines West, so may be the upper image with the huge grain elevators in the background was taken at either Council Bluffs or Omaha. Can anyone in the Group better identify these two old images? I've attached both images, too, for those who have trouble seeing inserted images. Best Regards - Louis
