Not any more!
After 3 kids, several addresses, and other life stories, no, the shoes don't match anymore.

We had been married 6 months when that was taken. The K-4 had just been brought down from the Horseshoe Curve a few weekes before, and was waiting for the spring of 87 to start the first restoration.

She has not changed all that much, hair's longer now, (plus a few greys from someone we see on this forum...), the K-4 is getting restored (again) and where that pic was taken, there is a turntable pit.

Time marches on.

Anyway.

Strange dreams? Those sound normal to me, except that mine involve a Hooter's Girl, and a B&O EM-1...

Did it ever run after the first restoration? Or is this just a cosmetic type restoration?

Yes it did!
Several trips up the Bald Eagle Branch (to State College Pa.) and a fateful trip to the TCA convention in York in 88.
She split her 3rd axle, due to dry cellars.
She has been in Scranton (Steamtown) for another restoration for the past several years, romor mill has it that she will return to Altoona soon.
