Looks like it's still being coal fired!

I also look at the valve-gear setting to determine the power... ( she's 'down in the the corner' );
then, the "color of the stack" ---- gray is hottest !  I'm guessing they're on a steep up-hill..

Wonderful picture, thank you for posting!!

Great photo!  I saw her a couple of times, but never running at speed.  Maybe some day.
