Re: Southern Ps4 4-6-2 Crescent Paint Question
Ray, sorry to be slow in answering.
The finishing practices for steam engines changed in 1934 and I don't
think any of the special lettered Crescent Limited engines were

Jeff,
In your Southern Passenger loco lineup, are any PS-3's? I would guess next to your beautiful, 1380. Sheer dumb curiousity.

Re: Inman Yard in 1946 or 47
Hi folks
That is a great picture for sure. Thanks for sharing. Looks like something is “afire” in the distance. Guessing the picture is what, about 1950?

Re: Inman Yard in 1946 or 47
Seems like I have seen other pictures from that era with dry ice cars at Inman. I wonder if the nearby packing plant used dry ice?

The dry ice car is another neat oddity in this photo.

The SRHA archives includes many more photos than we can probably ever use in TIES or SRHA books. Here is an undated example that includes a variety of topics.
Although the photo is undated, we know

Southern Ps4 4-6-2 Crescent Paint Question
I'm in the process of painting a Ps4 4-6-2 in the Crescent Ltd green. Does anyone have any suggestions on what brand and what green best represents the prototype?
Thanks,
RAY

SRHA has a copy of the Birmingham drawing that John mentioned. I remember seeing it once many years ago in Kennesaw. I don’t remember if that was before or after the big scanner was acquired.
