FROM THE YARD ARTICLES

PREP FOR SAN BERNARDINO

Steam Log: 4.10.2014

The crew is busy getting 3751 ready for her annual excursion to San Bernardino. Step one was adding water to the boiler on Wednesday night. The first of the crew arrives at Redondo Junction at o’dark thirty on Thursday morning to “light-off” 3751. All goes as planned and it doesn’t take long before she’s hot.

Eric Cook takes a closer look at the fire as pressure builds.

It’s always good to see the steam rising again from the ‘ole girl.

The crew takes a break for lunch before heading back for another long list of duties to complete.
