Hello, all.
Here is a question about some locos late in their prime. By "late," I refer to the immediately pre-WWI years. I'd like to know whether the older Dean classes still in service, such as the Barnums, would have worn boiler and cab lining during this period, or like most of the tank locos gone unlined into their declining years. Among the projects awaiting me are a Barnum and a couple Bulldogs from kits that need nearly total re-working, and repainting will be required.
There are two or three photos of Barnums in this period among the books I have to hand, but they don't show clearly any lining. (They were action shots, not poses.) Thanks for any advice.
