I just now looked at the filed color photo that was sent to me by Casey Wilmunder. It shows Shay 2 under steam at the end of the track in Camino with the bumper in the foreground. There is a small amount
of steam coming from around the cylinders. A guy with a short sleeved shirt is sitting in the engineers seat with someone else looking over his shoulder. THE SHAY HAS A LOADED PASSENGER CAR
BEHIND HER!
You have my word on this. Sorry, no date on the photo. Glenn Beier could also verify this as he told me many years ago of this event.
