I can't tell which is the Enola Gay. The one on the left obviously isn't because of the turret installations.

The Enola Gay is in the line-up all the way to the right of the picture, 2nd one from the front.

The first one from the front (to the left of EG) is Top Secret B-29-36-MO 44-27302, Victor number 72.
On August 6, 1945, it was assigned as the strike spare for the first atomic bomb mission. It was scrapped in 1954.
