There is a series of Articles in the newsletter of the Nevada State Railroad Museum , the SAGEBRUSH HEADLIGHT , written by Dan Markoff telling his highly entertaining story of his acquisition and restoration of the beautiful 1875 Baldwin, EUREKA & PALISADES #4, a wood fired, narrow gauge steam locomotive. The articles start in the Winter 2005 - 06 issue and run thru 2008. I first ran across the articles after picking up some past issues of the newsletter while attending Winterail in Stockton. If you like old steam engines or just love the EUREKA, take a peak at these articles. Dan tells some wonderful stories
Enjoy!

Russ, I just spent a good hour or so reading the stories and must say that is a great collection of memories. I was at Railfair '91 and remember seeing Eureka and Dan. Again a wonderful collection of tales about a great piece of history.
