Hello, I have a picture of a relative u am told standing next to this Train with some sort of shrinners "logo? Emblem?" On its front. On the back is reads " Uncle Dan for Sid" Sid being my grandfather. I think I can recall grandparents talking about a member of family being an engineer. But not totally sure. Anybody know of a Dan??? Know this is an old posting. Thank you!

This engine was recently repainted by a local service club and it looks super.

To Karen Denbok: When was your Grandfather engineer of locomotive #2616? My grandfather was also an engineer of this locomotive and actually drove it to it's final resting place in Haliburton. I included my e-mail address if you wanted to contact me.

About #2616 My grandfather was the enginer for that steam engine. I have very valuable pictures of his life as an enginer.
