I remember the flames shooting out of the stack, Kathy T. was quite impressed with that, until I mentioned to her that it was a sign of overfiring, and did not provide good steaming for the boiler (She walked away from me and got on the radio right away--I just laughed (to myself)at her attempt to be inconspicous.).
Ah Raifair, some great memories. I even have FILM photos of the flame show--somewhere in a box. . .
And I remember the steam crane in use in Dunsmuir area. I also remember the Steam rotary that was loaned to McCloud RRR (yes, three Rs) for a short time. Could have stayed there, but they sent it back and it was dieselized. Bummer.
