Hayes S. Date: 06/09/03 13:59 Re: 2816 Hamilton outing pics Author: nycman Thanks for posting those. 2816 is romping around Ontario and OC just put on a steam special. Hmmmm, all the steam is in the EAST suddenly. At least there\'s a western engineer involved.
Date: 06/09/03 15:29 Re: 2816 Hamilton outing pics Author: oktrainboys Thanks for the pics, please post more! So Doyle was at the throttle?? Is he a guest engineer? Seems he has a "project" in a few weeks back home. Lucky, deserving man. Is he scheduled to appear with the 2816 on any runs back to Calgary??
Date: 06/09/03 16:39 Re: 2816 Hamilton outing pics Author: finderskeepers No, apparently Doyle will be the regular engineer with Bill Stettler of 3751 fame as the alternate. Today Bill was in the left hand seat. Here is a shot of 2816 climbing the "big hill" into Cambellville Ontario, no the shot is not an illusion, this section of track is that steep (our little saluda!). Look how clean that hudson is burning. Not even a quarter slip up the hill..fantastic!
 Date: 06/09/03 16:43 Re: 2816 Hamilton outing pics Author: finderskeepers Here Doyle has her really rolling on CP\'s mainline, doing track speed about to cross over trafalgar road. Anyone familiar with this piece of track knows that it is straight as a die for about 5 miles, and with CTC and Welded rail, well you can let them out a little!
 Date: 06/09/03 17:09 Re: 2816 Hamilton outing pics Author: oktrainboys Hey Smokebox, Does that mean Doyle has given up PDX low speed for CP mainline highspeed? 2816 is not scheduled back into Calgary until the second week in July.

Tom Date: 06/09/03 21:14 Re: 2816 Hamilton outing pics Author: BryanTCook So this is "McRetirement", eh?
Date: 06/09/03 22:21 Re: 2816 Hamilton outing pics Author: smokebox Doyle will be back in time for the June Event. The 2816 will continue with out him.
Nice clean stack guys. Smokebox Date: 06/10/03 21:50 Re: 2816 Hamilton outing pics Author: puckeringswine So it would appear that Bill, "one hell of an Engineer and Fireman" is under the watchful eye of the master, could he be the heir apparent?
