Steam shovel crew drives Cuba rock haul in railroad rush
A Cuban rail line crew led by Foreman James Butler operates a large steam shovel at a south town pit, loading and unloading over 115 car loads daily. The team, including E W Evans, J O Neill, R H Lewis, and others, moves rock and clay along east and west tracks to maintain railroad service. Conductor Bishop and crew, plus the second train under Oder, handle extensive car loads, while visitors admire the machine’s capacity. The piece notes the crew’s departure for Nebraska and praises workers like Sullivan, Kinney, and chef Dave Gutherie at the dining car.
