Since number 8 spent most of her career on Clear Creek with number 7, the snow in the canon likely didn't require the heavy plows. I'll bet that number 7 in your photo had a "Como" spark arrestor as well, dating it to about 1916-1918.

Certainly after 1915 as the electric line from the generator to the electric headlight is nicely shown coming out of the handrail up to the light. Good view of a little detail not often seen.
