> The center beam and flat car carried the portable stairs and display equipment. The extra tender was water only and one of the ones still in use today. This trip was operated to help celebrate the Las Vegas Centennial. Frank Accord and Tom Stuart are operating the locomotive. This was before there was a dedicated "Steam" crew.



From what I've found on the web, 1980 was actually LV's 75th Anniv, not its centennial.

Here's one site that relates LV and rr history: [www.lasvegasrailroadsociety.org]
