The steam is from an exibit next to the county museum, I think it was called "Roots of Motive Power" on special weekends they fire up lots of old steam powered equipment. Engines, donkeys, tractors,etc. It's real working history, in steam. Nice picture.
Here it is morning, and I'm on my way to work! :-)
I found them, and told a part of the engine history too in the comment field (and I did put up a question too). Panoramio has not worked properly for a couple of months, since the upgrade done in September. Sometimes things get lost, sometimes it get back, the e-mail alert for new comments on your pictures doesn't always work, and nobody seems to know how to fix it. I have noticed that you crop, resize and compress your pictures in a similar manor to myself, around 200-400 kB. I suspect Panoramio has changed the rules suddenly, it may be a minimum limit introduced, which means that pictures with lesser size will not be reviewed at all. It means these your last pictures will in that case not be transferred to Google earth. This is not confirmed yet. The Panoramio team don't answer questions any longer. My pictures posted since September 6 hasn't been reviewed. Try to reload your browser and see if you find my comments, othervise come back and I'll try to send them again.

PS. My son Henrik and I went to a local model train show the other day, and happened to talk to a train bum that actually has driven through Willits on his way to visit friends in I think he said Eureka. Isn't it strange with both you and him within a few days, after my seven years long search? DS.
This ALCo RS-1 Roadswitcher was built in 1949 for Spokane International, later acquired by Union Pacific, sold to Chrome Crankshaft Co and Tidewater Southern. In 1976 it was sold to Central California Traction, and finally sold to Matt Monson in 1992.
I sincerely hope that you will grant me permission to post these three pictures on my model railroad page http://holmers.com/atrain/index3.htm . Click on Alco RS-1 in the menu.
I hope the headlight lid will be taken down from the wall it is embellishing right now, and given back to where it belongs when the days come for the big renovation of this sixty year old treasure!
Thank you so very much for taking the time photographing this treasure!
I feel both joy and sorrow in my hart when viewing your pictures of CCT #80! But, with her history of coarse she must be worn. The last info I had about her was that she was sold in 1992 to a private person in Willits. Later I found out his name was Matt Monson.
