10/8/48 B1Wx/DWx, power Alco class L-1b 4-8-2 2582 on B1Wx, Alco class L-2a 4-8-2 2785 on DWx, local freight rate, marked on DeWitt 11:45 AM, Cooper engine watch on Alco class L-2a 4-8-2 2751 on train B1Wx, marked off DeWitt 2:15 AM, on duty 14:30, paid $25.22 for 222 miles, S.

This was a turn job with B1Wx going north to Watertown and DWx going south back to DeWitt. Dad would have been assigned the engine watch on the 2751 going north. He probably assisted the fireman on the 2785 going south.

Have you reached out to Alco Historic Photos? They have around 10000 drawings. You'll need a check and snailmail it though.

Al,

I looked it up on the map. Dad may have spelled it wrong. Hyndsville, NY is about halfway between Cobleskill and Seward on the Cherry Valley branch.
