Huff, puff, and some racket
Author: tomstp

Texas & Pacific class D-8  4-6-0 #352 expells smoke and steam coming in to Shreveport, La  from the branch line to Texarkana. The branch was not a heavy traffic producer and  4-6-0's were the common power but, they could make some loud noise coming into town.. East Texas and Louisiana saw lots of 4-6-0's in use. Several out lived the big 2-10-4's.

After running sister T&P 316, I can assure she is making PLENTY of racket.

I second that...one of the few saving graces of running 316 is that she is a talker.
