Conductor Burnett's Train Book for June 17, 1928

Thanks, JBBBBB!  The guys at the Bristol Roundhouse called him "Flatwheel" Harrell.  Not because he caused them, but because he often reported his Y6 had them.

Nice fellow.

Was not known to be slow!

    Wonder if that fireman Harrell on the 1722 was J. R. (Roy) Harrell who was
    the Powhatan Arrow engineer on the cover of Link's NIGHT TRICK?  I knew him
    as a Bristol Line freight engineer in the early 1950s.

  Should be the same person.  The only Harrell on the Radford Division at that time.  He was hired as a fireman on Jan. 24, 1910.
