Class J/K class lights

[NW Mailing List]

The engine got new cab wood a few years ago in Spencer from the efforts of one of the volunteers.  What you are seeing might just be dirt as the roof is green, although it looked hard to tell.  Not sure how well it is being cleaned. A random fact that won't win you a round Jeopardy.....the roof that was replaced a couple of years ago was the same one put in back in '82.  Thank you, Will Sadler

Maybe not rot but in poor condition.Roger HuberDeer Creek Locomotive Works

                That voltmeter runs pretty high. What were typical voltages in that day and age? 48volts sticks in my head?Nice photos, Jimmy. Please pass along a thanks to Chad. MattOn Oct 9, 2023, at 4:45 PM, NW Mailing List <nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org> wrote:
  

    
  
  There was some discussion about the lighting of the streamlined
      class lights on the Class J & K locos. With the help of my
      friend Chad Jordan, he has passed along a photo of the switchbox
      inside the cab of the 611 that shows how the switch selects each
      color to be displayed. Note, "white to the left, "green" to the
      right.
