Title:  MILW 2-8-0 #1226, (Chicago, Milwaukee St Paul & Pacific)
Description:  The fireman on locomotive #1226 watches carefully as the tender is fimled with water from the yard standpipe. Max Miller took the photo and listed it as a 2-8-0 but incorrectly labeled it as a class G-5A. That would belong to a 4-6-0.
