By that time, Steve Lee had been promoted to a Superintendent (in about April or May 2010), and the current manager was in charge of the Cheyenne Steam Shop. Steve still went on all the steam trips after his promotion, until his retirement at the end of December 2010.

Kelly these were shot with my fairly new Canon Rebel digital camera. Before that I used a Nikromat 35mm with a Nikor lense. Only shot prints never shot a slide in my life. I have thousands of 35mm prints in no orginazation what so ever. Maybe someday I'll figure out how to scan some of them.
