    Super Neil thanks. Can anyone tell me - Is the B&W pic of 6000 her original form (bell excepted), ie single chimney, original shape steam pipes, no superheater pipe on smokebox side?

    That's a pre-1935 photo as the top lamp bracket is on top of the smokebox instead of the smokebox door and "GREAT WESTERN" is in full on the tender.
