I took this photo at the museum's East Union depot during the September 1982 Members Weekend Celebration. It was a very active weekend in 1982, with plenty of electric equipment in operation on Saturday, as well as diesel and steam operations on Sunday. J.Neils Lumber Company shay locomotive # 5 built by the Lima Locomotive Works in Lima Ohio, is getting some mechanical attention between demonstratioon trips at the depot. Steam locomotives have many parts that require maintenance and lubrication to function properly.Welcome to my rail fan page! Here you'll find information and pictures of railroad related items from the Chicagoland area, Wisconsin and Indiana. Enjoy your stay. All Aboard!
