"White Pass & Yukon Route has restored a retired steam engine originally built in 1947 for use on its tourist excursion route. The oil-burning steam engine, known as engine No. 73, took its first passenger trip following the restoration work on the Fraser Meadows excursion route July 15. "

"In addition to bringing back the steam engine, WP&YR also reorganized the route taken on its summit excursion. A loop was constructed at the summit, as well as a secondary track in several areas alongside the original tracks, to allow trains to turn around without stopping and to pass each other for the first time.
