Steam & Excursion > Lake Whatcom Rwy 1070Date: 12/16/12 19:58 Lake Whatcom Rwy 1070 Author: Waybiller A few pictures of a locomotive I miss, and hope to see steam again someday.

Anyone know? More cheers, Barry Date: 12/24/12 16:52 Re: Lake Whatcom Rwy 1070 Author: jbrailphotography when I talked to the owner he was talking about the neighbours complaining about the smoke being toxic. And he also said that it needed recertification. Also he told me they run it every year for the Christmas train to steam heat the cars at a very low psi.
