Is that loco N de M?

Yes,

Yes, It looks like a cab at the rear of the tender. ??

That's another engine parked behind the tender on an adjacent track - the angle is deceptive.

Interesting build photos. It looks like 1106 will have Walschaerts(or some other outside-type) valve gear, but with slide valves. I don't think I've seen that combination before. I've seen Stephenson's valve gear with piston valves, though.

Those low-pressure front cylinders on the first and third engines are huge.

At the 1948 Chicago Railroad Fair


Edit 1: Changed "Chicago World's Fair" to "Chicago Railroad Fair."

I hear that the Reuben Wells 0-10-0 was the most powerful locomotive in the world, in it's day.

As for 1948, I think you mean the Chicago Railroad Fair. It was also at the Chicago World's Fair of 1933-34. It's too bad they don't have World's Fairs in the U.S. any more.

The CVRR combine car is still at the PRR museum......

Might be the same field flight 1308's parts landed in.

I wonder how determination was made as to who would get to sit in chairs in the front row?
Sitting on the ground in front of chairs doesn't count.
Those chair sitters were either important or old. Or both.

Bible Conference Faculty '08. I wonder what, about the Bible, they were conferring about?

I don't think any of them play with trains.
