Here are some photos of the 315 taken by Chris Tookey who is one of the Silverton station agents. The engine and tender were separated, then moved into position on the Shennandoah siding. The fire was allowed to burn itself out and when I visted about 7:30 this evening, the steam pressure was done to about 30#. What a great event to witness without the usual throng of on-lookers. Spikes have been pulled, and Tuesday the 315 and tender may well make it into the SN engine house. See Chris' pictures at:
