18 and 19 are both oil burners. Almost identical engines.
Royal Gorge personell were on board, they were looking at the double deck open car, so I told them, "Buy this car, and leave us our engine!"
It was a glorius run, complete with slippage on a grade and curve in the AM--too muuch curve grease and frost!
I posted some pictures at my S-trains album,
[s-scale.org]
( I hope I got the URL right).

PS I also passed out a lot of "Keep the 18 on the McCloud" buttons. If you're going next Sunday, I left a bunch at the McCloud Building & Hardware store for them to pass out.
