Late '50s photo of a Big Boy and a Big Blow turbine by the depot in Wyoming's capitol city. Big Boys, a turbine and the depot still exist, but the umbrella sheds are long gone.

This view is on the south side of the depot & the 2 locomotives are facing west the umbrella sheds are long gone as is that the steel bridge in the background replaced by modern concrete 4 lane. Some of the concrete platform under the umbrella sheds is still there.................Wooly PS You can see one of the aux. fuel cars behind the Big Blow made from 800 series tenders which UP uses for aux. water cars now.
