Remarks & Notes 
Former Alaska Railroad steamer #557 is lifted into the air while the ARR flatcar is positioned underneath. #557 has been in possession of the late Monte Holm, who rescued it from a scrapper in Everett, WA in the 1960s. After Holm's passing, the steamer was eventually bought and donated to the Alaska, who will eventually restore it for service.

Flat cars are often loaded with very common ladings, but they can sometimes be more impressive!
