Hi Andre,
Congrats – another fine effort.
However, I must take you to task about the Kitson serial numbers not being known. They are known:
4062-4069 of 1901 (RR 23-30). ( I actually possess a plate from 4062, which I obtained from loco 23 sold to the ZSM. The plates were unusual in that they didn’t show the serial number on the front of the plate. It was however engraved on the backside!)
