Ed, Thank you for your response.  The only other thing I seem to recall is
there were at least two photos. I believe the locomotive the person was
riding in was pulling the Tennessean as I recall the camera was aimed
backwards and showed stainless steel cars with a Y6b passing it. The second
photo was aimed forward out of the cab and showed a meet with another J
approaching from the opposite direction.
