 It's Steamy Sunday here on the Blog!  Today's image is of the other full size locomotive I get to help fire on.  It is a Porter Tank engine which means it's water supply is carried over the boiler and not in a tender behind.  They were usually used for short distance operations.  It's a fun engine to fire on and I learned a lot of other operations with it this year such as how to take care of the compressor and I helped fill it with water for the first time.  Kind of scary as I am not fond of heights.  😅
