Ah, that is the engine you are looking for. I didn't recognize the construction number (now many engines did ALCO build that year?). My comment was more about erecting cards in general as opposed to a specific engine. Years ago I did get photographic prints of the erecting drawings for the K-28s and the Oahu 2-8-2s. I recall getting a builder's photo of one of the SV mikes. Well, I just found the little catalog of the Erecting Cards published back in 1976 by the Mohaw & Hudson Chapter. No listing for the SV mikes in that catalog. I would make a current inquiry, in case some more came their way. Brian Norden |

Brian and Mike, We tried to locate the erection plans during the # 19's original restoration in 1996. I'm not certain which sources were checked, but I know we drew a blank. Good luck with your search.......Jerry http://www.svry.com lmcx@eoni.com |
