Not sure what your purpose is here. There were 400 B&O I-5 cabooses, carrying road numbers C-1900 through C-2299. C-1939 was built as part of the road's first large order, built at Washington, IN in the period from November, 1925 to February, 1926. Many I-5's had their wheelbase lengthened and were reclassed I-5c; and many had the lengthened wheelbase AND extra ballast weight added, becoming class I-5d. It might be difficult to find a photo of C-1939; but photos of the 400 I-5's, I-5c's, and I-5d's are readily available from a variety of sources. Robert Hubler's CABOOSES OF THE BALTIMORE & OHIO RAILROAD (B&O Hist. Soc. , 1994) and Dwight Jones' BALTIMORE & OHIO CABOOSES (T.L.C., 1998) are the two most readily available info sources.
