    Somehow that string of Santa Fe F units seems a bit lost, within all that green stuff.

    Looks to be a "Blue Bonnet". Notice how much darker the paint looks compared to the following unit.

    That straight-up ladder to the front porch just screams Fairbanks-Morse! Is this what they called a "baby trainmaster"?

    No, that's one of three custom jobs for the Santa Fe. It's the switcher, on switcher trucks, with a long frame and short hood to accommodate a steam generator for passenger station duty (TS = terminal switcher).

    The Baby Trainmaster was the H-16-66, though some people called the H16-44 that too.

    The Santa Fe had half a dozen RS-1s. Near as I can tell, all had steam generators, like the H12-44s, and also spent all their Santa Fe careers switching at passenger stations.

    AM I seeing a variety of spark arrestors? Or are some of those simply caps on the stacks? Or both?

    All the Sacramento locos have stack caps. All the Denver locos are assorted spark arrestors.
