I recall a Trains Magazine 'News Photo' published when Graham County brought in a 70 ton diesel to handle freight duty. That was sometime between 1969 and 1972. After that the 1925 hauled the tourist trains only.......and operation that lasted until 1975 or 1976 I think. The haze is over exactly when the deezul showed up.

When you haven't worked at the current home of the Shay in almost 6 years, you forget a little. Will Vanderburg From: David Pressley Yahoo! Groups Links --------------------------------- Yahoo!
