Tom Davidson	General	Actually class P-1d, built by B&O Mount Clare Shops in 1925, using the boiler from Q-1aa 2-8-2 Mikado 4122.	10/14/2015 3:15:47 PM

Tom Davidson	General	The date is probably earlier than August, 1953 because the lettering shows the larger size, which was no longer in use in 1953.	10/14/2015 3:17:26 PM
