A beautiful locomotive. Too bad I didn't have color film. Ed Cooper tells me that it should be labeled FS, not FT

These are FS units, built without drawbars. Note 5th porthole on B units.

5461 was originally numbered 546 (A) and is a FT renimbered in 1950. These were built w/o drawbars. (540-547 series). Can't speak to the 5th porthole but all have FT type boxes on top.
