This shot was taken at Dave Perry's steamup in Hayward, CA on August 11th, 1996.  Please excuse the poor image quality.  It's the earliest picture I have of the original engine.
This shot was taken in Paso Robles by Richard Finlayson, Editor of the online version of Steam in the Garden.  His website is the ultimate destination for Live Steamers that run on 45mm and/or 32mm track!
Steaming in cool, damp, coastal air makes for great steam plumes.  Those logs were quite heavy, having been cut from "green" wood only a day or so prior to the steamup.

Questions or comments?
