I am looking for photos of the engine room of the James A. Farrell, I am interested to know if she like many of her fleet mates had an engine board. Plus I saw a photo in one of the old fleet magazines of part of her engine room and it had a large say 10 inch diameter clock on top of the electrical switch boards. Several people I have met that sailed on her said they dont recall such a clock there. Perhaps it was removed later in her career or replaced with a modern or smaller version? I would like to know if anyone has any photos of the engine room of the Farrell that might happen to have clocks visible in it, whether on the gauge board (if it exists), or well anywhere for that matter. Thanks for your help. -Steve
