odd photo

Ed, http://nwhs.org/data/steam/ says  1333 and 1334 were also converted, 
07-1930 and 12-1929 respectively, not that  it's a big deal...

Yep, it was the lowest-numbered 2-6-6-2 to be converted.  Since it  was one 
of the second order of the 2-6-6-2s, one wonders what drove the  decision 
not to convert a lower numbered engine.  Luck of the draw,  perhaps; the 1331 
and 1339 were the only two converted out of the order that  covered the 
1315-1339.

All you who guessed right, you win the prizes; go buy yourselves a  drink.

Is the secret that 1331 was the first Z1a to become a Z1b?

Is this a game of  "I've Got A Secret"?

As a sidelight,  the 1331 was a significant Z-1b.  Anybody  know why?

More  interesting, is if the photo is truly an original taken by Prince.  

I've been intrigued by this Library of Virginia entry  about the "Richard 
E. Prince Jr. Railway Photograph Collection." It contains  approx. 1,600 3.5 
x 5 inch negatives, approx. 450 “116″ (2 x 4 inch)  negatives, 49 5 x 7 
inch silver emulsion glass-plate negatives. "The  collection is arranged in 
three series. Series A represents numerical index  1 through 642, and are 
arranged in order of engine number, lowest to  highest, subcategorized under the 
proper name of each railroad line. Almost  all images in Series A predate 
1940. Series B is similarly arranged,  containing approximately 1,600 images 
dated between 1937 and 1948, and  contains copy film of existing photographs 
not taken by Prince. The  glass-plate negatives constitute Series C and are 
arranged in order of  engine number, lowest to highest, and date from 
approximately 1907 to 1926.  The Library holds a detailed though incomplete 
paper-based finding aid."  

The images have not been digitized, so are not  available online. See 
http://www.virginiamemory.com/blogs/multiple_exposure/2012/01/03/richard-e-p
rince-jr-railway-photograph-collection/  

for more details.
