June 17, 2012
"This wood-burning locomotive
built in 1870 visited the Wenatchee railroad depot for the city’s 80th
anniversary celebration in 1973. It was the first locomotive purchased
by Northern Pacific Railway, a predecessor of Burlington Northern. Al
McLane, office manager for Burlington Northern’s marketing department,
is at the controls. Hanging from the side bar is Hill M. Oakes, area
sales manager."
