I am really proud of how Magma #7 turned out. It was the obvious high point of my time in Texas. As an Arizona Boy who first saw #7 headed eastbound coming into Superior in July, 1967. I made me feel real good to see her alive again.

The next day after arriving at Rusk with our Railfan Mixed train.
I must have given my camera to someone else to take these...
After turning at Rusk...
Charging over the 2.5% summit of Fairchild Hill.
Somewhere west of Maydelle (Java perhaps?)
Magma 7 was a sweetheart that I won't ever forget.
