Congratulations!

[edit]

I'm at a conference in Birmingham, England, and just spotted one of you images "in the wild": https://twitter.com/Data_Orchard/status/1062650753418956800 -- Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:35, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not representative of an Overland Mail Company stage

[edit]

I hope this information will be helpful. Your image shown for a stagecoach in the Fort Chadbourne museum on the "Butterfield Overland Mail" site is not representative of Butterfield's Overland Mail Company stage (celerity) wagons that were on this section of the trail. Also there was no "Butterfield Overland Mail" as shown on the transom rail. The stagecoach shown in the photo also appears not to be a mail stagecoach, but a common passenger stagecoach, as it does not have a covered compartment protected by a boot below the driver's seat and a boot in the back to protect the mail. J. S. & E. A. Abbot's 1853 advertisement clearly shows the difference between a mail stagecoach and a passenger only stagecoach. John Butterfield never used his name on any of his stage wagons or stagecoaches, only "Overland Mail Company." From Fort Smith, Arkansas, to Los Angeles, California (1,920 miles of the trail), only the stage (celerity) wagon was used that Butterfield helped to design. The replica in the Fort Chadbourne museum is similar to the J. S. & E. A. Abbot's stagecoach shown in their 1853 advertisement. J. S. & E. A. Abbot's mail stagecoaches were used at both ends of the trail from Tipton, Missouri, to Fort Smith, Arkansas, and from Los Angeles to San Francisco, California. In between, trough the frontier (which includes Texas), only Butterfield's stage (celerity) wagon was used. See my new additions to "Butterfield Overland Mail" for an image of the stage (celerity) wagon. I drew this exact image based on the only known photo of a Butterfield stage at the time of its service in January 1861 at the Texas-New Mexico border. A great deal of attention is now being made to the subject of Butterfield's Overland Mail Company as the bill is now its final stages in the Senate to give National Historic Trail designation to the Butterfield Trail. None of Butterfield's stages are known to have survived.

While the EAA's N4028 1927 Swallow DID originally come with a Curtiss OX-5 water-cooled V8 engine, there is NO OX-5 shown in your picture.

The EAA gives rides in this plane (believed to be the oldest plane in the U.S.A. that you can still purchase rides on), and upgraded the engine to a Continental R-670 (1931 vintage) which is an air-cooled 7-cylinder radial (as you can see in your photo) which has about twice the power of an OX-5, and MUCH better parts availability. — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 2600:1700:DB00:1C90:D8A0:C142:78EB:FB78 (talk) 21:28, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
