Absolutely wonderful.
Does it have the standard 5 year, 50,000 warranty?

I think the warranty expired in 1896, Ira. :)

A super-hardy huzzah to all those who put in years of time for this first unofficial trip to happen.
Well, well done Jason and helpers!
Now, will there be a local, and a skip-stop train, or a double header "megatrain" for Victorian Christmas service?  :D
I also envision a big, post-holidays '9 steams/car barn's done' party for youze guys.

BTW, what is that red item under the tan tarp In the last tubes cleanout pic?
And, is Mike gonna run Case-y thru the car wash?  ;D

Paul, the red item is the air compressor that is part of Big Joe, our tamper. The white shell behind it is our other air compressor. Plan now is to use both together to improve the air supply to the tampers.

Almost un-noticed in all of this is that #10's numbers and lettering have turned silver.  Now both locomotives have the same color lettering.

I don' know about anyone else but brown tarps instead of blue really looks great.

Oh AND a big thank you to all the people that made #9 under steam possible.
What a transformation.

Yep. Brown tarps blend in better, not as visually glary as blue ones.

Before Mike put the dozer away, he fixed the ruts in the east parking lot (by the shop).  Please don't park there until it dries out.

Any plans to paint the cab roof red?   ;D

That may happen when Marcel works on the cab early next year.

A red cab roof on No. 10 would be great!

Also forgot to mention, the tracks were cleaned off before I left. No steam clean or car wash, just shovel..

There is a red roof on #10.  It is under a layer of coal dust.
