take heart.
III she don't get through she'll get

and Sankey showed the new ram to
the engineers.
They had taken the 566, George Sim
clair's engine. for one head and Burns

Kennedy, with the 314, and Cameron,
with the 206. The engines were set In
pairs. headed each way and buckled
up like pack mules Over the pilots
and stacks of the head engines rose
the tremendous plows which were to
tackle the toughest drifts ever record
ed before or since, on the West End.
The ram was designed to work both
ways. Under the coal each tender was
loaded with pig iron.
The beleaguered passengers on No. /,
sidetracked in the yards, watched the
preparations Sankey was making to
clear the line. Every amateur on the
train had his camera swapping at the
ram. The town, gathered in a single
mob. looked silently on and listened to
the frosty notes Of the skyscrapers az

watching, ordering, signaling, while
No. /, with its frost bitten sleepers De-
hind rotary. struggled to buck
through the ten and twenty foot cuts
which lay bankful of snow west OF
McCloud.
Not until April did it begin to look
as IL we should win out. A dozen
times the line was all but choked on
us, And then, when snowplows were
disabled and train crews desperate.
there came storm that discounted the
worst blizzard of the winter. AS the
reports rolled in on the morning Of
the 9th, growing worse as they grew
thicker, Neghbor, dragged out, played
out mentally and physically, threw up
his hands. The 9th 1t showed all day,
and on Saturday morning the section
men reported thirty feet in the Black
wood canyon.
1t was o'clock when we got the
word and daylight before we got the
rotary against 1t. They bucked away
till noon, with discouraging results,
and came in with their gear smashed
and driving rod fractured. 1t looked
as II we were beaten.
No. / got into McCloud eighteen
hours late. 1t was Sankey's and Sin
clair's run west.
There was a long council in the
roundhouse. The rotary was knocked
out. Coal was running low in the
chutes. II the line wasn't kept open
for the coal from the mountains, 1t was
plain we should be tied until we
could ship 1t from Iowa or Missouri.
West of Medicine Pole there was an
other big rotary working east, with
plenty Of coal behind her, but she was
reported stuck fast in the Cheyenne
hills.
Foley made suggestions, and Dad
Sinclair made suggestions Everybody
had a suggestion left. The trouble
was, Neighbor said, they didn't amount
to anything or were impossible.
Its a dead block, boys" announced
Neighbor sullenly after everybody had
done. I'VE are beaten unless we can
get No. through today. Look there!
By the holy poker. it's showing again!"
The air was dark in minute with
whirling clouds. Men turned to the
windows and quit talking. Every fel-
low felt the same-at least all but one.
Sankey, sitting back Of the stove, was
making tracings on his overalls with
piece of chalk.
''You might as well unload your pas
sengers. Sankey," said Neighbor. you'll
never get 'em through this winter"
And it was then that sankey propos-
ed his double header.
He devised a snowplow which COM
bined in one monster ram about all
the good material we had left and sub
mitted the scheme to Neighbor. Neigh
Dor studied 1t and hacked at 1t all he
could and brought 1t over to the ONCE.
1t was like stalking everything ON the
last cast Of the dice, but we were in
the state Of mind which precedes a
desperate venture. 1t was talked over
for an hour, and orders were finally
given by the superintendent to rig up
the double header and get against the
snow as quick as 1t could be made
ready.
