Looks like it is doing work again. Pulling covered hoppers.

I have been up to the one in Scranton, PA. It is huge.

The fireman was doing a great job. Who needs a smoke unit.

It is run on #5 fuel oil which I think you are aware of. Check it out on Wikipedia. You can see the fuel oil bunkers behind it.

I'll be in Illinois in time for the Big Boy to stroll on in. Hopefully, I'll be able to get at least one really good picture...
