Here is an archive shot of Big Six somewhere in the Chilcoot. Behind the locomotive the beginnings of a slide ass jammer can be seen. The date is unknown but the camera taking the photo is obviously quite old and well used.
Well it's springtime on the BBRy, and that means things are stirring once again. I afraid I may need a bigger railroad! Just acquired a bobber caboose and another loaded 40' flatcar for the railroad. The hard work will again commence this fall as other obligations and commitments are tying up my time right now. In the mean time swing by Fort Missoula and view not only some Big Blackfoot relics but view the the only public regularly scheduled, steam powered sawmill in the Big Sky State! Dates will be April 23rd and 24 and July 4th from 8am-4pm. Also I should mention plans are afoot to see if the whistle of the oldest Willamette in existence will see steam once again. No hard plans yet but I'll keep you all updated! For all you of you following this blog, thank you! If you have any questions or comments, feel free!
