I bought this B&O steamer #7404 on e bay last year. It is a Berkshire 2-8-4 and it is great. Does anyone know when it was built?
I don't find it in any Williams catalog I have.

Dear Jim,
Does it have whistle and bell?
Look for a number on the end of the box. Usually "Berk ###"
I have only a few old Williams catalogs.
Berk 101 appears in the Winter 2003-2004 Contemporary Catalog. Road number is not legible in drawing.
Not shown (sold out?) Winter 04-05 catalog.
Drawing shows grey smoke box, blue boiler, red roof, grey lower rear side panels, blue tender with gold lettering.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Joe Satnik
