The late Chet Peterson and his 4-8-4 taken at Hunter Park circa 1971 by Ken Casford. Chet was one of the founders of Railroad Supply in the 1970’s. The 4-8-4 and tender were built between 1957 to 1963 with the locomotive first running in 1961. Chet sold the locomotive to Cliff Seimears and Clarence Talbot in 1988. Dean Willoughby purchased the engine from Cliff in 1997 and it now resides at the Riverside Live Steamers’ railroad in Hunter Park. Photo provided by Dean Willoughby, September 2013.
