More Big Boy. Wow.

All the publicity materials warn spectators to stay well clear of the tracks, don't recall the distance they recommended but when it came through here people were right up next to the tracks. It vents A LOT of steam when decelerating, right about at waist level. That made 'em scatter.
 
Anyone that has never had the good fortune to have ever been around the old steam engines and smell the coal dust is truly missing one great time. If ever in Baltimore make it a point to visit the B&O Museum.
