I did a Google search of the C of GA and found sites but I didn't see any steam pics. :-(

says it's a CofG 4-8-4, but number in photo doesn't match caption.

I agree with Keith, it looks like a mike to me. The pic is a nice looking mike. It was my understanding that the 4-8-4's that C of GA had where very similar to the SP's GS-2's without shrouding and skirting of course. War production board rules about using proven designs or something like that. I was in Summerville GA. over the weekend and the line is still in place from Chattanooga to Summerville and beyond a ways. I did see that the TVRM has placed a Turn Table at Summerville for turning power and that was done in

2002. Guess Ineed to take a ride on that line! :-)

Neither does the loco, it's an L&N USRA 2-8-2.
