Meanwhile in 1948...

This is a scan from a 4x5 neg out of a collection I'm helping a friend get digitized
and cataloged. The photographers name is Walter Wilk. Kind on nice to work with a neg
that's 4 times larger than my 645s! The note on the bottom edge says 02-14-1948,
PM 1232, Plymouth, MI. Hard to say just where around Plymouth. I'm just glad to
see it.

Another shot by Walter Wilk. N&W Y6b 2110 with hoppers at Ironton, Ohio.
Unfortunately there's no date on this negative. Seems we're on the sunny
side of the tracks here so I'm guessing this is a westbound.

Nope not a A Class, A Class was 1200's like 1218. That I think is a Y class IIRC.


Yes a Y6b. 2-8-8-2. A's were 2-6-6-4

A, Y, I was only off by 23 letters . I've fixed the captions. Thanks Matt!
