One of the very early shots of Dixiana after her restoration in the early 1960′s (doesn’t even have her name yet). She had a very nice pilot made for her by the restoration crew, making her look a lot like the Shay locomotives owned by the Mt. Tamalpais and Muir Woods Railroad. However the crew soon figured out why Shays were not commonly fitted with cow catchers because it was smashed off when the locomotive ran into some of the work cars a few weeks after it was attached. 

Train of the day is: Jokioinen Museum Railway's TU4! ( X )
