    In Ohio- What was the location of "C Cabin?" Nearest town? Or?

    There was a C Cabin in Carey.

    I think that C Tower was a brick structure - and if I remember correctly, was a single-story structure. Most switch towers are normally two-story...

    Thanks for posting that Form 19!!!

    Tim-

    I have about 180 more C&O offices examples in my collection. :D Perhaps if there's enough interest, some day?

    As this is dated 1957, could that "dead engine 5029" have been a steamer?

    :D

    Throw some of those out on the forum from time to time -it'll be fun to figure out where they are from, etc.

    I'm just guessing that 5029 was an S-2. C&O took delivery of numbers 5027 through 5046 in 1949 from Alco.

    I can scan a few very soon. Perhaps even tonight. Say when! I know where most originated. But they might just promote some intriguing discussion!

    Tim-

    I've been meaning to scan a few. Something is making my computer glitchy. As if the RAM is all being used up. Weird. So have been trying to fix that. As this clunk tries to freeze on me, if I do too much at once.

    :eek:mg: :sad:
