They used to have an S100 that was being rebuilt until (I assume) it was deemed too small for their needs. It's currently being restored in the Midwest by a private owner.
Well actually, they're rebuilding and restoring 2. They will first restore Lake Superior and Ispheming 18, and then Grand Trunk Western 5030. They have quite a good couple of steamers that will be beautiful in the secret valley!
Quite a shock that in the coming years steam will be running on this railroad with ex Lake Superior & Ispheming 18 & ex Grand Trunk Western 5030. Though by my guess 18 is gonna get rebuilt first since its 1472 is next year and is in better condition compared to 5030 since that engine is likely gonna need an extensive rebuild compared to 18 which hasn't seen steam since 2013
Awesome 😎
Those numberboards are badass.
I went on a cab ride back in October. It was an awesome experience!
Coooooooooooool .
Amazing video. Thanks for sharing. LJL
not sure if I'm correct but I think I heard this railroad is trying to rebuild a steam locomotive. Correct me if I'm wrong or not?

@@regularguy7266 ik but 5030 is likely not gonna get worked on for awhile.
@@evanf1293 will it be possible that 18 will be converted to coal since she is on the eastern us or be kept oil. Same with 5030
That's my house at 11:03!
