Recently a memory from childhood popped into my head. I am at Eola Rdhse.
and my brother and I are climbing all over and into the cab of a steam
locomotive in stall one of the house. This is before the forermans' office was
built
over this track.
I recall clearly the mine run coal of all sizes and shape(of course I
didn't know that was what is what called then) and the sheer number of controls
and the mass of the locomotive compared to the diesels in the other stalls and
outside.
My guess is the year was 1959 or 1960. It was the only steam engine at the
house and I believe that's why we went there.
Whats the educated,experienced opinion of the group as to which engine I was
climbing around ?
I doubt it was the 4960 or 5632. Could it have been the 6315 ?
