What a nice surprise to see a photo of Harold Borovec in your great selection.

He is one of the finest gents you'd ever care to meet. I rode with him a few times,
the first being in 1986 on a family trip to WA. He was running the big Heisler at
Mt. Rainier Scenic and invited me to ride with him. I still remember his cues to his
new fireman, "little chuff, big chuff, and whoa Nellie" if the stack got too black."

A really fine old steam head with a soft, subtle touch.
