I am very grateful to Ken Rideout, an HO modeler, who allowed me to digitally photograph several photos of the blowers at Tunnel Hill. He took the first photo in the 1960's. The other photos are dated 1947, which confirms that the steam power plant had been replaced by the diesel plant before my modeling era. Several of the shots are detail enlargements of other shots. Thanks, Ken! (Photos are no longer displayed here, by request of the original provider, but are still on file for reference.)
