Fireman Nick Bredeen of the Durango and Silverton tends to his steed, K-36 # 481 as it glides downhill towards the home terminal of Durango Colorado in the winter of 2024. Today, all the D&SNG's locomotives are oil fired to prevent forest fires in the ever drying American Southwest.
I remember asking him to take his hat off and he duly obliged.

Shovel coal & make the bell ring!
Thirlmere Festival of Steam.
"SO, HOW MUCH COAL DID A FIREMAN SHOVEL?
A locomotive's coal consumption varies greatly depending on factors like locomotive size, hauled load, and speed.
A 38 Class locomotive on the Newcastle Flyer could burn through 5 to 7 tons of coal on a single return trip between Sydney and Newcastle.
That's the equivalent of:
• 5 to 7 1-ton bags
• Shovelled by hand
• Over a few short hours at high speed!"
"FEEL LIKE GIVING IT A TRY? Grab a shovel and see what it was like to work on the footplate of a steam giant!"
This is my son, he was a fireman for Halloween. We wanted to honor those who serve as firemen.
