I knew Ken well. A small group of us -- Hol Wagner, Wes Haas, Ken and myself-- often photographed together, on one occasion traveling as far as Mexico. Ken was not only a fine photographer but a great companion with an encyclopedia of i
nformation on railroads, history, geography in his head so that the hours spent trackside were never dull.

Great photo of an obscure train. I wonder what the heavy weight on the tail end is, didn't the Rocky club have an ex-CB&Q business car that they ran on trips. Perhaps that is what drew the group to chase this particular train. Presumably the "freight" F had a steam generator, I wonder how many Santa Fe F's had generators....ex-passenger engine? Thanks for posting.
