Horace Shaw at the throttle on the Whysall Light Railroad during an open house in 1938, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. The young man seated behind the tender is Hugh Pettis, Hugh of Cliff Pettis. Photo by Cliff Pettis. From Live Steam Magazine, March 1979. Ed: The Live Steam article incorrectly stated that Hugh was the son of Cliff. Rose Pettis Fisher, Cliff's daughter, wrote 27 March 2020: "I’m forwarding your information to my uncle, Hugh Pettis, who was assumed to have been my father’s son in those older pictures. My uncle is now 93 years old, fifteen years younger than my father. When my uncle was eight years old (1935), my father took over the responsibility of raising him. Many people assumed he was my father’s son."
