Grew up in a town where the local RR station burned coal in a pot-bellied stove. I was fortunate enough to see 6 -8 steamers run through in a day. Nothing like the smell of coal smoke. Last steamer ran through my town in 1963. A few years ago I found some along the rail line, in the ballast. Took it home, put it in the fireplace, and had myself a "nostalgia party".
