Next is an old photograph of No. 26, the Memphis Special, at the Bristol, Va. depot, sometime in the 1920s. When I hired in 1964, I saw this faded old box camera photograph under the desk glass in "BD" Telegraph Office in the Bristol depot. The old lady operator (well, she seemed "old" to me then!) who held the second trick job at BD was named Lilly, and one evening when I was reporting for Time Freight No. 88, I sweet-talked her into letting me borrow the photo in order to copy it. Oh, had we only had scanners and Photoshop back then ! Sorry about the composition of the photo... take that up with the man who made the exposure ! |
