   Sunday morning, no one is around to get in the way of photos. #2719 is still hanging in there. Some leaks were fixed during the night, but the final section of pipe going to the blower needs replacing - photo credit Randy Lambertus


   A view of the engine and the tender coupled together again, if only temporarily. The tender is full of coal and water and will service the engine almost all day - photo credit Randy Lambertus


   TWO SOO Line engines, both under steam, in one place! On the left is #2719 and on the right we have our winter guest #1003. #1003 was a big star this day, providing much appreciated help switching #2719 between roundhouse bays - photo credit Randy Lambertus


   Another shot with the sun lighting up their right flanks on this crisp November, Wisconsin day - photo credit Randy Lambertus


   #2719 on the turntable blowing steam out the valve cylinders. The valves and main pistons are not yet installed - photo credit Randy Lambertus


   The throttle is wide open and the steam is screaming. It is only 20 or so degrees F. today - photo credit Randy Lambertus


   A nice profile of this beautiful Pacific class locomotive. The final work now begins to get #2719 ready for late Summer operating runs - photo credit Randy Lambertus


   Sunset is close as the last steam exits the blowdown ports - photo credit Randy Lambertus
