Re: Speaking of inclines...

SRRR #6 is still at Newhalem. The NW Railway Museum tried to obtain her but the head of the Seattle water department refused to let her go. She was stuffed and mounted in operable condition and so she remains unused but much admired to this day. I'm trying to locate some photos that I took of her a few years ago but am coming up dry. As for the incline, it remains and is used by the staff at Diablo Dam to move trucks and equipment to the upper level of the dam. At one time they gave rides to the public but have stopped.
