Note: Everything seems accurate, but are not ALL 992's
of Railroad Grade ?? Your report above says only
"?".
Curator Response: No, not all 992s are considered railroad grade. Many are pendant-set, which would not have been accepted for railroad use during this era. Currently, this range is in question because we are unsure if these are pendant-set or lever-set.
