Sunday Walk to the Water Tank

I'm lucky when I can get this many children to take a Sunday walk with me. It was awesome and the grass was just beginning to green up near the water tank.

The Big Boy Comes to Town

Big Boy is the common name of the American Locomotive Co. 4000 class 4-8-8-4 articulated, coal fired, steam locootives manufactured between 1941 and 1944. Union Pacific RR operated them until 1959 which happens to be the year my dad was on his LDS mission to Australia.  Wikipedia is my friend.  This engine is massive.






This isn't Big Boy, but rather some more RR scenery.
