463-One More Photo!

Unread postby Tim Tennant » Thu Mar 14, 2013 10:02 am

I thought you would all enjoy this photo that Craig McMullen took on Tuesday March 12th of the 463's tender being loaded with coal. The crews had to actually sledge hammer the coal to bust it up into smaller pieces as the coal chunks were too large and don't burn well in the K27's firebox.
