Santa Margarita Ranch Pacific Coast Railroad
May 8, 2005

That's our own Phil standing behind the engineer! In the far "seat" is SMVRHM store manager, Rob. Pam handles the SMVRHM table as someone checks out Hal's book. Out on the mainline... The boarding area. "We'll back No. 3 into the spur, empty this train and back it down the grade, then bring No. 3 back out and doublehead them..." ...Previous | Next...

May 7, 8a, 8b, 2005. A little TLC for the loco. No. 2 coming up the grade to the depot area. This loco was originally built for a quarry operation in Illinois. This 7.5" gauge version of the Pacific Coast Railway's No. E-2 was made available by the good folks at Bitter Creek Western Railroad. No. 3 is an 1897 Porter, 2-6-2.
