I spent the last week in Washington DC. I found this engine at the Smithsonian museum in Virginia just outside DC. I thought there might be some interest on the forum. Enjoy.

By chance did you get a close up photo of the data plate? If so, would you please post it here. Thanks.

Sorry JW, I did not........BUT, I will email a request to my daughter to take more pix of the plate. She and her family live about 20 mins away from the museum and found that if you visit after 4pm there's no entry fee.........so they visit at least monthly. Your request is definitely doable.
As an aside, I have pix's of the B29 Enola Gay and Discover space shuttle. They're not too revelant on this forum so if anybody wants copies PM me and I'll gladly send them.
Regards,
Steve

If you were interested in Merlin/Packard data plates in general and not that particular one, here's a couple. Also one of the Packard jet engine.
