- Ok guys,
-
- I have posted 717.gif in alt.binaries.pictures.misc as 717.gif.
- I hope this works, never done a post of a gif. It has been uuencoded so
- Vi it then uudecode it and then you should be able to view it.

- It is a picture of her running up the track at the Bluegrass Railroad
- Museum a couple of weeks ago, she had two coaches (Pullman) behind her, you
- can just barely see them. She is a 52 year old Porter 060 T. Oil fired now,
- and we had to set 8lbs on the brake to get her to chug up the hill. She
- was originally an Army switcher. She is in the Anderson Block around the
- eight mile post from Lawrenceburg Ky, heading to Versailles Ky. Let Me
- know how the picture is, it was scanned with 24 bit color. It didn't look too
- good on a Sparkstation 1+ so I lightened it up a bit. I have been told it
- looks good on Dos systems. 73 and enjoy.
- Jerry
