Restoration of historic steam engine in Soda Springs

A restored steam engine in Soda Springs draws attention for its woodlike metal grain and lack of blueprints. Welders Jim Maack Byron Salmon and Gary King report painstaking fabrication and putty work to revive the cab. The engine uses kerosene for its headlight and steam brakes. A concrete base and narrow gauge rail support a public display to be dedicated at 2 p.m. Saturday.
