It seems to me that I heard that the "headlight on at all time" rule went into effect sometime around 1950...That's strictly "what I think I heard'...which is quite aways from anything that might have a smattering of fact within it, Pete

Although may are of engines that are not moving, there are a lot of photos of engines hauling loads. Most all do not have the head light on, the photos where all taken during daylight hours.
Was it a practice for the Q and other RR's to run steam (freight) without the headlight on during the day?
