Just saw these on Flickr. They have some nicely restored stuff running. It's also interesting to see Baldwin #60008. http://www.flickr.com/photos/8334416@N0 ... 216892882/ |

Funny how all railfans look alike regardless of country they happen to reside in. Love to have their dead line! Later! Mr. Ed |

Thanks Tom; some neat pictures. It has been a long time since I have looked at Ron Zeil's Twilight of World Steam, but at time, wasn't this yard full of dead steam, from one of which Ron liberated a builder's plate. It is shame so many were scrapped. Wasn't a pair of 4-8-2s supposed to go to the WP&Y? I guess that deal fell through; they may be the pair of engines in the deadline in these pictures. Finally, I thought I also remember in Ron's pictures a tall plinthe with a small O&K like engine on top. I wonder what happened to it. |
