a few pics of the 481 test run to rockwood on july 10th. found one hot side rod, and the packing was bad on the right cylinder.
click the thumbs if you care...
greasin' her up half way. the crew left the alemite bucket and an oil can on the frame when they took off, all of which fell off and got left behind. we returned the oil can, but i aint touchin the alemite!
the crew at hermosa, realizing they have no more grease!
just before ducking under 550.
wont make the cut!
on the wye at rockwood.
dont see too many stub switches anymore. i like this pic a lot!
