The water tank is completely blasted in and out.
Coal bunker.
Back and engineer's side.
Original 1930's lettering was found under the 1990's lettering by slowly eroding the paint layers. Measurements were taken to place the new lettering in the same location as the 1930's lettering. I tried but could not find any Sandy River lettering remaining. Interestingly there was more paint layers on the engineer's side than the fireman's side.
Original Portland Co. assembly marks were found on the tank side sheets. T's and B's were stamped in the sheets with a punch to note the top and bottom of the sheets. Lines of four dots were punched at the top and bottom of the sheets to indicate where to start the rear corner bends in the tank sheets.
The white circles above and below the W is where the punched T and B are one the fireman's side. The punch marks to start the rear corner bends are circled above and below the grab iron.
A gouge in the tank corner inside the engineer's cab door. Could possibly be from a wreck.
