yabbut the 1333 and 1334 didn’t last to the end like the 1331 and 1339 did . . .

Ed, http://nwhs.org/data/steam/ says 1333 and 1334 were also converted, 07-1930 and 12-1929 respectively, not that it's a big deal...

  Yep, it was the lowest-numbered 2-6-6-2 to be converted.  Since it was one of the second order of the 2-6-6-2s, one wonders what drove the decision not to convert a lower numbered engine.  Luck of the draw, perhaps; the 1331 and 1339 were the only two converted out of the order that covered the 1315-1339.

  All you who guessed right, you win the prizes; go buy yourselves a drink.

  Is the secret that 1331 was the first Z1a to become a Z1b?

  Is this a game of "I've Got A Secret"?

    As a sidelight,  the 1331 was a significant Z-1b.  Anybody know why?

      More interesting, is if the photo is truly an original taken by Prince. 

    I've been intrigued by this Library of Virginia entry about the "Richard E. Prince Jr. Railway Photograph Collection." It contains approx. 1,600 3.5 x 5 inch negatives, approx. 450 “116″ (2 x 4 inch) negatives, 49 5 x 7 inch silver emulsion glass-plate negatives. "The collection is arranged in three series. Series A represents numerical index 1 through 642, and are arranged in order of engine number, lowest to highest, subcategorized under the proper name of each railroad line. Almost all images in Series A predate 1940. Series B is similarly arranged, containing approximately 1,600 images dated between 1937 and 1948, and contains copy film of existing photographs not taken by Prince. The glass-plate negatives constitute Series C and are arranged in order of engine number, lowest to highest, and date from approximately 1907 to 1926. The Library holds a detailed though incomplete paper-based finding aid." 
    The images have not been digitized, so are not available online. See 
    http://www.virginiamemory.com/blogs/multiple_exposure/2012/01/03/richard-e-prince-jr-railway-photograph-collection/ 

    for more details.
