1949 photo?  I think John means 1952.  832 was painted in the Fall of
1949...I have a shot of it with absolutely immaculate paint taken in
November 1949.  It didn't take 3 years for it to look less good!

It was trucked to Charleroi, then operated as a fantrip from Charleroi to
Ingram.  The motorman was John Baxter.  There was a photo stop at Castle
Shannon.
 
That 1949 picture is interesting for its implications on the cars condition
at the end.
