"A gal who only wishes to be known as "Margaret (SP Fan)" had slipped by me on the San Francisco platform . . .

Margaret got involved in the 2472's restoration program early-on, and spent time cleaning the inside of the boiler and performing other grunt work. She has been described by a fellow as "for many years the heart and soul of the group and a great volunteer", and I can personally confirm that her enthusiasm for railroading extended to we appreciative employees.

So, what you see here is what I regard as a Christmas miracle.http://wx4.org/to/foam/sp/steam/2472/2472_caltrain74.jpg

Margaret (SP Fan), I shall always treasure this snippet of one of my favorite moments in my career, and I love you dearly for your warm generosity!

-E.O. Gibson, engineer emeritus"
