Thank you roundhouse, and agreed drgwk37, it is awesome to see two K37's under steam once again.

Hats off to both the museum and the D&S for making this happen. My brother and I got the pleasure of riding behind both, and it is a treat. I wish the museum had enough track to actually let their engines get up and run. I know this takes cubic dollars and is not really practical, but it would be that much better. And as far as the D&S, they have been hit with several problems limiting the run of the 493. Hopefully by next year we will be able to see her running full trips to Silverton and back.

A side note, if the C&TS got a 37 running, that would make 3 different locomotives of the same class, running at three different railroads. I'm sure for steam, this is something that isn't found today (or rarely) anywhere else in the world...
