Story
Tim Bagget found 12/24/1974 on a "Christmas Eve Hunt" in Pembroke, KY. In a pole hold on the Louisville & Nashville, Henderson Division, on the Nashville to Terre Haute line. Supposedly a "one of a kind" color. Dwayne and Dario both say this, and best guess at color was "powder blue". From Charles Brandon collection. He supposedly paid a significant amount for it, but the damage saw little interest in it at the auction. I was intending to bid on it, but thoght it was goign to be in the last lot. It came up when I wasn't paying attention -- Dwayne was telling me I had to go for it. I didnt' get first choice in the lot -- but second change at the same price saw me jump!
