Ken,

This locomotive is misidentified.  It is not Class I 127 but rather is Class L 127.

4-6-0 Class 127 was built by Roanoke in 4-1885 and remained on the roster with that road number until 3-1912 when it was renumbered to 137 and later sold to Birmingham Rail and Locomotive Co. in 6-1913.

2-8-0 Class I 43 was built by Baldwin for Shenandoah Valley RR in 12-1883 and acquired by N&W RR in 1890 and renumbered 550.  Number 550 was renumbered to 127 in 3-1912 and later scrapped 1-1915.

The file photo identification needs to be corrected.

  Good morning!

  Please see the attached photo from a RAILROAD Magazine, January 1945 issue, page 120.  Does anyone have guesses about which division this train or its crew was assigned?

  If anyone wants this issue, I have it listed on eBay as a part of a five magazine lot.

  Best wishes,
