I went looking for this issue of the Warbonnet myself.
Going all the way back to 1999, I could not find any article w/photos re the GC train. Rather, I found an article about the Grand Canyon branch connection on the Santa Fe. Perhaps that's what Tom was thinking of?
I also quickly scanned through what I considered possible books in my library for a relevant photo. Found none. What I DID find, however, was a photo of a lighted GC drumhead attached to a station platform bumper with the waiting train (sans its own drumhead
) on the track in the background.
Sorry. Best chance is to inquire of the historical society and patiently wait. My experience for seeking this sort of 'haystack' photo is that it takes a while...months. Perhaps they will publish your ISO question in a future issue of the Warbonnet to broaden help in the search.
OTOH, in my own little world of the hobby...I'd have a lighted drumhead hangin' on the scissor gate or railing of the tail car..............and respond to pickers-of-nit with a smile!
I have no rules on my branch of the Santa Fe.
