Hello,
first of all a big thank you from the other side of the pond for the fine engines to Allen and Herb.

Keep on steamin'!

In their later years these fine engines often saw their status relegated to branch line service; here we find 4014 on the Howard Sub.

P.S. I took the liberty of editing the "SANTA FE" lettering on the tender
