Result of Low Water . . .
Author: SCKP187

The past couple of months there has been discussion and photos of the UP 9018 boiler explosion near Upland KS with comments that after that event photo reminders were placed in the cabs of steam locomotives. One such framed photo I found attached to the back wall of the cab of Challenger 3977 on display in Cody Park, North Platte NE
Thanks for looking

Yep Brian. That is the photo that was posted in many cabs after the accident took place. You should see the rest of the company photos of the incident.

A problem not to be fixed by cranking wide open the injectors.

And a lesson learned from everyone else who saw or seen what happens!
