SOU 2-8-2 #4869  Contributor's Pick!       
Beautiful steamer in action. Extensive note on back says ""Southern Railways, Fregih, 1st #54 N-Bound, Engine 4869 2-8-2 near Mableton, GA - Crossing Nicajack Creek, 43 loads, 2 Mtys - 2163 tons, Engineer Caldwell, Fireman Dukes, Brakeman Sorrells, 12:17pm 5/26/46, 2nd Sect. was a diesel train." Unfortunately, the only piece of info missing is the name of the photographer that caught and described this shot! Built by Alco-Richmond in 1926 (serial #66071, class Ms-4)
