My pleasure.
Those G5s are 2 of my most favorite roster shots!

Get your slingshot and a hunk of coal . . . . after all, it worked for David.

Dave: Oh good, I 've got a cheering squad behind me!
Actually, a photo of a D16sb appears on the Northeast Rails site today, towing the same tender. A little late for LIRR D16's, but it shows the ubiquitous nature of that tender. I believe the H6sb at RMPa has the same tender.
No, where is my carbon and Fruit of the Looms?

Okay Dave, you're gonna love this...That is EXACTLY what Ron Ziel told me it was. He was thrilled that he owned a snowplow with a genuine LIRR Camelback tender.. Also said the machine had a Camelback boiler, though we know that wasn't true.

Well, Well Well... Hmmmmm...throw coal at me???? Is this what you two guys have reduced your self to? Geez Louise. Remember RDG, who has the Limes?
Maybe I should ship some of the brown dirt Lignite coal I have here off to you instead. Try THAT on your broiled chicken!
BTW, Dave...some pun indeed..."off a G54". No wonder why Vaudiville died.

As someone once told me: "You're so funny you should be on the stage . . . . There's one leaving in 10 minutes!"
LIRRNova: NO that was the wreck of the "Cannonball" west of Eastport in 1921. Seems the engineer exceeded MAS around the curve of the Montauk branch where the Manorville branch tied in and tipped the engine and a number of the cars over. In my photo, the engine has been righted but the tender is still the worse for wear.
