"All Steamed Up!" (subtitle: "Narrated Sound Stories of Colorado & Southern
Ry.
Steam Action) is my all time favorite. It was released by
Owl Records,
1229 University Ave.,
Boulder Colorado
as ORLP-9 sometime in the late 1950's or early 1960's.
The entire 33 1/3 RPM monaural record is of C&S (in some cases ex-CB&Q) steam
in revenue service in 1957, 1958 & 1959 on the C&S mainline north of Denver.

Folkway records put out some records with Q steam tracks in their
Science series. They were all recorded by a man named Vinton Wight
in the 1950's.
