One cold evening I dashed over to Hillsboro Station just
in time to catch this magnificent beast as she was rolling
away.

It was raining off and on all morning. SPS700 had been pushed out to be moved onto another set of tracks to make way for a returning SP4449. The wee-tender was having difficulty making it's way into the Roundhouse. So, after one try, the crew all went outside and started to push! the locomotive into the barn. Look closely, you'll just make out two figures putting their backs into it. Amazing.
