Original pen & ink drawing issued August 2006
( low resolution image illustrated )
This is a drawing done for use in my autobiographical book
Railway Rock Gang, which includes stories
of the nine years that I spent working in the BC RAIL Rock Gangs. This
drawing shows our large drill rig, a combination of rock drill mounted on
a logging skidder chassis. The Roc Jac, as it was known, is sitting
beside the BC RAIL mainline along Seton Lake, clearing a train.
It is drawn with Pilot DR pigment ink pens and india ink brush pen on
translucent vellum. The drawing is in a 12" x 16" OPUS black metal
exhibition frame.
