Photo locations

[NW Mailing List]

There is a great top shot of the yard and the supply house in Alex's 
/Billion Dollar Coalfield/, p.173. You can make out the gantry. And that 
anvil? I meant vise.

Not knowing the circumstances or dates of the photos, photo 1 may be a 
last run of steam. Photo 3 may be the last run out of Eckman, in the 
least, one of the last.

Thanks for sharing, Jim.
