Re: Pagosa Junction/Gato Steam Pump *LINK*

Fred,
If you want to e-mail them to me, I'll post them on my website where everyone can see them. I would like to upload them to my "Steam Lizards" group on Yahoo as well; to share them with steam pump fans like myself. (I will of course give you full credit for them.)
There are a few steam pump houses around, but most of them have had their steam equipment scrapped. To have one preserved like this in as-is condition is a gem indeed.
The lumber mill at Long Leaf still has a big pair steam fire pumps in the pumphouse, with a vertical boiler in a nearby shed. A lumber mill in Bruce, MS had it's steam fire pump submerged in water after a plans to remove it were cancelled. A farm in Alamo, Texas has/had a steam pumphouse with a working steam pump; it was the heart of a steam museum that has since been closed and it's collection scattered or scrapped. The Mount Washington Cog Railway had a steam pumphouse nearby at one time; I don't know if it is still there or not. But these are the only intact steam pumphouses I have heard about so far.
-Thanks again;
