SP 9175 Rear Helper
Title:  SP 9175 Rear Helper
Description:  My Dad took many pictures of rear end pushers with the caboose; at his job he got into an argument with a coworker know-it-all who firmly stated that Espee never placed helper engines behind the caboose of a train. So Dad took all of his photos as evidence and the guy accused Dad of faking his photos. Apparently, they were all "double-exposures". You decide for yourself if they are indeed fake.
