I have this photo that I found online several years ago. Photographer unknown. I believe it was offered for sale on ebay. Info with photo stated the location as Sunbright TN dated September 1955.

Here is an example of a Southern FM H24-66 Train Master being sandwiched between to two EMD F "A" units on the CNO&TP main line at Sunbright, Tenn. probably in the 1950s (green paint scheme) from the

There is still a lot of research to be done for the SRHA SR diesel book on the FMs but from what I have learned so far, the consists we see them operating in are because of their MU and brake systems.

These are 2 images from ebay that I can readily access from my laptop … I have a 616 neg taken by the late Jack Hahn of an H24 in Louisville where they seemed to congregate, such as the roster shot

Well, I have a mental picture. Unfortunately, I did not have a camera with me the times when I saw them (and I would have needed a telephoto lens anyhow). Circa '62 and on to the demise of the FM's, I

David, I forgot to mention, because they were not all built at the same time frame, there were some external or visual differences. The most notable is the presence of, or lack of radiator louvers on

Thanks very much for your reply. I’m working on a large model project 44 Tonner for 7.5 inch gauge track. All infos and photos are appreciated ! Thanks again, David Eisman

David, I don't have my reference material in front of me right now, but I can provide you the following. There is not a quick easy answer to your question. The 44 Tonners were not all built at the

I’m looking for color photos and detailed drawings of Southern’s 44 Tonner locomotives in green paint with the large round SR logo on the side. I’m particularly interested in the history of

We have mentioned, and quite a few people have seen, how many original and blueprint drawings we have in the SRHA archives. Although a great many of the General Arrangement and larger size details

Interesting that there are steam coils on the left side of the building layout view. Could this have been an early "co-generation" tool to recover some of the waste heat from the burning of whatever

Bill and All: So far, I think I have identified crematoriums at major livestock in-transit feed and watering points: in addition to Spencer…John Sevier in Knoxville and Atlanta. Nothing (so far) at
