Old #18 is bak in service. Nearby town has a historic steam engine, which has been off the rails for 7 years.. A complete rebuilding was in order,
and with meagre funds, small but dedicated working team, a suggested 2 year rebuild was extended to 7 years.
Of course, much of that time expended, was waiting for periodic inspectors making their appearance. The tracks run about 1.5 miles
(as the crow flies) from where I used to live. Inever rode the train , although I worked some on the station.
I leave the ride to rail enthusiasts and the tourists.. The engineers, flag men etc. are all very dedicated rail aficinados.
