I finally got to see it! Nice! I couldn't get it un-sideways-ed though. That manifold thing with the 4" pipe is impressive.

Just had delivered 22 tons of pea coal from Lehigh. Very clean looking. And I must add, Leiby Trucking were outstanding folks to deal with on the delivery side.

Glad to see you are still running that beautiful boiler and installation.

For some reason I thought I remembered seeing the 260 listed for sale.
