My wife's grand father was in train service on the Central from 1916-1961. Anyway, her cousin and I were looking though his old seniority roster and time books. It shows he was fireman on locomotives 3567, 3732 and3618 during June, 1928. Anyway, we were just wondering what class of power these are and since we are both die hard "P" company fans we don't have a clue as to what locomotives "Brand X" used.


BTW, Just kidding about the "P" Company.
