Thanks for sharing the photos.....It certainly was challenging country for railroading....

Glad I got to see it in operation but wished I could have ridden over Lookout in an open window coach behind a S4. Must have been worth the ticket.

Does anyone have information relating to the story near the end of BN's operation where a train coming into Wallace plowed into a bunch of automobiles parked too close to the tracks during a football game there? I heard the story but don't know anymore details....
