Rolling out to haul passenger train(s) between Abilene, KS and Enterprise, KS for the Chisholm Trail Days Labor Day weekend. The ONLY operational full-size locomotive in the State of Kansas.

Good looking locomotive!
Do you have a side view of the rods?
Thanks!

Thanks ALL.

Pat. She was a target of opportunity today as they pulled her out. Will have to check my shots since 2000 and such of her for your request for the drivers (79 inch I know. )

Pat,
I have a shot from 02 Dec 2000 which gives a partial view of the drivers (going away.) 'Tis no problem going down and taking a new set of shots of her over the next couple of days. Am not the most technical type on pulling something up from my hard drive.

Please don't make a special trip for me.
I just like to look at that kind of stuff, if convenient.
I was hoping you might have some images on hand.

No problem Pat, is only couple of miles down there. Found my shots but can not figure how to get them from where-ever they are. 02 Dec 2000 was her shake-down run for FRA certification. Most of my shots were of her moving not paying too much attention to anything else.

Thank you. Should make a correction to original posting "Only operational full-size steam locomotive in State of Kansas."
