Cool album. Not only did CR run an amazing array of power in the early years, but the stuff they disposed of almost immediately was also a treasure trove. Still, as I look, I can hear the strains of Mozart's "Requiem" playing in the background.

Nice shot of former EL units deadlined.

Thanks, Tom and Steve. To think that the success of these units led to similarly long lines of early to their grave steam power makes it all the sadder.
