Serial Number 1090253 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: These Lever sets were Railroad approved. Even
some pendents was allowed in certain areas.

Curator Response: Thanks for the report. Yes, the lever-set movements from this run would certainly have qualified for railroad service. However, the pendant-set movements would not have been approved on most American railroads at the time (yes, exceptions exist, but they were not the norm and would not justify a "railroad grade" classification).

Changes since this report was submitted:

Movement Setting changed from Lever or Pendant to Lever
