I met Mr. Steinheimer at a Milwaukee Road railfans' convention in 1974 (or 1975?) in Deer Lodge, Montana ... I was 13 or so, and my mom brought me there from Missoula, where we lived. He was very gracious both to me, a train-crazed teenager, and to my trouper of a mom. I've never forgotten that. This is how train-crazy I was then; also in the room that same night was Don Hunter, who made sound recordings of various rail subjects. He played a tape for us of a Little Joe horn ... and I ran to the window of the Hotel Deer Lodge to see the train ... only realizing a moment later it was just an audio tape, and that the Joes were gone. Plenty of laughter around the room ... embarrassing then, cherished memory now.
