Odd numbers were for northbound trains and southbound trains had even numbers. 38 would have been a train ti the other direction. The 1102 engine was new. It was delievered from the Balwin factory in Philadelphia just 36 days before this wreck. 1102 is the engine number. 97 was that time slot, similar to a flight number for airlines.

Also do you have any information on their reference to the "38" in the ballad?
