AT&SF 2-8-2 steam engine sunk into roadbed on May 27, 1957. This train
was
headed from Guthrie, OK., to Ripley, OK., on the first line built by
the
eastern Oklahoma Ry, Co. in 1899. This engine might have been the last
AT&SF
steamer to run in non-helper service on the Santa Fe Oklahoma lines.
The line
was embargoed the next day by train order. The great flood of 1957 by
the
Cimarron River wrecked the Ripley bridge and finalized abandonment of
this
line. David Sasser collection.
