NP 0-6-0 number 924 (Rogers, 1899) steamed for the public for the first time at Snoqualmie, WA for their "railroad days" event. She needs more work and some paint, but she seems to be steaming pretty well today. I took these shots there this morning: https://flic.kr/p/2jwJxrM https://flic.kr/p/2jwKFry https://flic.kr/p/2jwKGUP https://flic.kr/p/2jxaUnq |

Nice photos, Lee. Thanks for sharing. I was there, too, with my son. Sorry I missed you! |

rats, Flicker doesn't like dial-up either, after 20 minutes, I gave up. |

Sorry, flickr won't let you select actual image links to post on a forum through a cell phone, and it won't let me directly upload any of them as image attachments on this forum... |

Fabulous photo! And of a size that downloads in a little under 5 minutes for me--perfect! I see they still have some piston packing issues, but she looks good. THANK YOU! |

Nice headlight. Always nice to see a pre-1900 steam locomotive restored. |

The box housing looks a little odd, not having a provision for the chimney for the lamp. Using a LED makes sense as far as reliability. |

I talked with one of the guys about that headlight. It is a temporary mock-up required to satisfy the FRA so they could make their test runs over crossings, and prove their LED concept. A period-correct headlight is being manufactured which will also be LED. |
