December  2017

On the 17th,  we fired up #7and had a good day.  The new air compressor worked great finally!
Got to plow snow to Clear Lake.  The first six pictures are of #7 out and about on the 17th.

On the 31st, found #7 under steam again and the railroad under snow from Phelps to Clear Lake.
On the 30
th, Jim Small and I plowed uphill to EOT with #25 but left the lower part for #7.  She performed fine again
but lost her footing plowing uphill off the trestle.  We went back to get 25 to push but she developed a problem
just East of Jacks Pit and we had to abort the final shot into Clear Lake.  It is nice to have #7 in service
and the air brakes working.  Mel did a nice job of converting her.
