I like both photos but favor the cropping and processing of the first. It looks like a classic railroad poster of the the 1930's. Yes I know Big Boy was the 40's.


I agree!!!
Like the detail in the first one!!!

Can't tell for sure, but it looks like these cars may be connected together with permanent drawbars, rather than the usual couplers. Note also that the normal placard information is missing...built date, car lightweight, capacity, and load limit. My guess is that these 10 units are actually operating as a single "car," always running together as a unit. If you have other photos, you might look and see if the missing placard information is on one of the cars, most likely #1 or #10, and if the weights seem applicable to all 10 units together.

This reminds me of a Dump Train. Equipped with one conveyer belt system under all hoppers. The belt system would be connected to an "unloader". Check out the below image.

I've seen this Georgetown RR Dump train loading in the quarry.
The dump train would be delivered to a siding and would unload/stockpile the material on the ground next to the track.

Thanks for the compliment. We were staying in the rv park when I took that picture. There for several days, so obviously I was able to take quite a few.


I was staying there as well. Wished we could have met...
I'll be back next year. July thru Sept. I volunteer on the train as a Docent. I have some other connections, too.
