I really like firing this locomotive. It has a tall boiler that's very forgiving when the water isn't the greatest.
29 is out of service for awhile, something about 1472 days.
 But, be on the lookout for 4960 on the GCRY the first Saturday in April. I'm crossing my fingers.

Haruo, was that last one taken at Canyon Rails in 2002?  Here is one of  mine, doubleheader 3751 and 4960 from that adventure.
