Jim,
Great. We can start Saturday afternoon. I
hope to have the challenge of controlling the switches worked out. We can
also finish the facsia.

Subject: Re: [CBQ] Tracked Steam Shovels
Technically, none of these
photographs are "steam shovels". None are steam powered and first three are
pictures of a dragline and the others are of a power shovel i.e. internal
combustion engine power. It probably has a gasoline engine, but maybe it has an
early diesel engines. Likewise, the dragline has an internal combustion engine.
Q off track machines were numbered in three digit numbers. They are likely
working one of the Q's ballast pits of which there were several on the Lines
West.

Here are some more photos I have acquired. They are
of tracked steam shovels. I believe they were all taken in the same
location. In one of the photos you can see both shovels. They look
to have been taken in Wyoming or South Dakota. One is numbered 609 and the
other shows a partial number of 02. I am not sure what the last photo is
but it was with the rest of the photos. Looks like some kind of form for a
canal possibly. Hoping someone may have any idea on where these shovels
were based out of.
Thanks,
Brian
