Steve;
You're right! A
lot of people from local and northeastern clubs were in to see it, and that's
just what they did! Museums, too! Local historical society, same thing. Then,
to add insult to injury, I had one fellow from a well known steam club go up one
side of me and down the other when I mentioned we were recovering the engine,
he was mad as hell. I had to hear how his club had enough money to get any
engine they wanted, and if that one was worth getting they would have gotten
it, how we were spoiling the chances of other groups getting engines because we
didn't know what we were doing and we were going to give such groups a bad name
when we failed. Needless to say, I've never joined. Unbelievable. The good part
is that it turns out he is not representative of the attitudes in general in
that group, and there are many fine fellows there doing good work too! But
there's always gotta be one! - Jim Mackessy
