It may cause you to go nuts and buy a 8X10 view camera!

Hi, Will,
Fascinating history to this locomotive, born in 1905. Many various serious modifications during its life. It originally operated in northern New Mexico. It in fact after retirement was in repose for a while in Madrid (MAD-rid) New Mexico, which, Will, I know has historical significance to your family.
An odd change during its life was when the original Walschaerts valve gear (the most common "modern" type) was replaced with the (older) Stephenson valve gear. I'm not sure just now what kind of valve gear it ended up with.
Thanks for the great shot.
Best regards,
Doug
