General Silver Dollar City Talk / Re: New engine(s) status

« on: March 20, 2018, 04:49:44 PM »

OK, just found out from " a good source" that an engine numbered 504 (i think) is in the shop and has already had its shakedown runs and is awaiting 1 more inspection. Once that is passed, she has the green light. They expect it to be online sometime in mid April. The second engine, number unknown is still in major rebuild. The frame and running gear is still in PA. for rebuild. The new boiler is on site next to the engine shed (left side as viewed from the train) and the in house shops are building the cab. Completion timeline is unknown.
