Z Cylinder Class Plates

[NW Mailing List]

Matt and All, * USRA 2-8-8-2 Series, Classic Power 3* by Tom Dressler, page
7 has a photo of Z1a 1353 with a class badge, however, the badge is on the
rear set of cylinders. Also, *USRA 2-8-8-2 Series, Classic Power 3A**,* by
Dressler, has a photo of Z1a 1361 sporting a class badge on her rear
cylinders as well. I have seen a few other examples in books, (a magnifying
glass helps!). -Ed Burnett, Lynchburg
