SP 4449 Steam Locomotive, No. 6

Here she comes! Seconds later, steam surrounded me, and I giggled like a kid in a toy store who'd been told, "Take your pick!"

Good-bye to all those lucky, lucky folks aboard the Deschutes Steam Special.

    I got caught in the steam vent, when 4449 starting moving off the side rail. What I learned later is the venting is done to force condensation out of the cylinders. If not done the condensation could break the cylinders
