Dear friends:
Dear friends:


The number of files is still increasing: now 14 files up from 7 last time. I think that is better; I am committed to keeping file size down. We’re now up to 457 entries. Among those are 48 4-4-0’s and 4-6-4’s each as well as 43 4-8-4’s. We have 34 4-6-2’s. 77 of the entries are foreign-prototype, which amounts to 17%.
I have finally turned the “T’s” around: for ex. 4-6-4T and 4-6-6T come after 4-6-4.


A few men really got up-to-bat this time and helped: Eric Lagemann, Pat Hosford and Larry Fisher, for ex. Also, as always, Pat Fahey. I appreciate very much that Montreal’s Jim Leggett posts a good bit of stuff on Facebook. Of course, all kinds of room remains for improvements in these files.
Yes, I do hope to be at the PVLS and Waushakum meets this August in Massachusetts. Perhaps I can meet many of you then and get a lot of new info and corrections for these lists. As always I need more info on: owner, builder and location of photos.


I am still listing 4-6-6T’s ahead of 4-6-2’s and 4-6-4’s. I think that makes sense size-wise, for a 4-6-4T or a 4-6-6T is really only a snazzy Ten-Wheeler. But it doesn’t make sense in terms of numbers and I am planning to change this. Number-wise, 4-6-6T should come after 4-6-2 and 4-6-4.  
Now we have 484 entries; we should be well over 500 the next time we appear in 3-4 months.


An old request: I appreciate it if people publishing photos on the Internet, for ex. on the [https://www.chaski.org/homemachinist/ Chaski] forum or Facebook, would include more info, including at least owner, builder and location of photo.
May God grant our world peace, we just had a close scrape yesterday.


Best regards and all the best for the New Year. May God grant our world peace,
Bill Yoder

The Registry

Berlin, 12 April 2018

Dear friends:

I have finally turned the “T’s” around: for ex. 4-6-4T and 4-6-6T come after 4-6-4.

Yes, I do hope to be at the PVLS and Waushakum meets this August in Massachusetts. Perhaps I can meet many of you then and get a lot of new info and corrections for these lists. As always I need more info on: owner, builder and location of photos.

Now we have 484 entries; we should be well over 500 the next time we appear in 3-4 months.

May God grant our world peace, we just had a close scrape yesterday.
