    Greetings-

    While sorting through some materials tonight, I ran across the attached photo of McCloud Railway #18 on its last run, a short trip to Signal Butte and back with a single flatcar full of tourists on Sunday 7 August 2005. Can it really be almost four years already?

    Time slips by too quickly. Where is the engine now?

    John, I believe the 18 is now at the Sierra RR. awaiting transfer to Carson City (whenever they get that project finished). :D

    Will it be a working engine at Carson City or a static display?

    Here's one of 18 from a Martin Hansen special in October 2002, not close to being the last run. I returned in 2008 for one of the many "last" runs of 25. Tracks are ripped up now, going to miss that photogenic site. :tb-sad:
