SP 4428 at Logan

Click Photo To Enlarge

I have no notes from the collection regarding the date and location of this photo. It appears to be Logan, CA, circa 1940. The number boards are blurry but they appear to say 2-98. There's a small saddle tank steam engine to the right of the train. Photographer most likely Bill Darrough, from the Darrough Collection. Since negatives were extensively traded it's possible Bill was not the photographer.
SP 4428 is a Lima 4-8-4, SP Class GS-3. Reportedly: it was built in 1937 by Lima, builders number 7733. SP 4428 was vacated in 1958 and scrapped in 1959.
