    Perhaps, next to the famous war bonnet, the lead loco's scheme is my favorite Santa Fe scheme.

    Were those just exhaust extensions? Or did they contain a spark arrestor?

    2299 was a "fireless" steam locomotive that operated inside the Dallas Trade Mart. It was fed steam from a stationary boiler that vented its smoke outside.
