Aloha - Excellent photos, I assume these are from the late 1950s when the engines were owned by Robert Day? From what I have pieced together, there was a fire that I assume wiped out this estate operation, structures, and also damaged the locomotives. I believe in the early 1960s, both were sold to HW Brunskill. I have heard atleast one engine was rebuilt, not sure about the other one. Location of the engines is also sketchy. Any news out there on them?

Beautiful photos, thanks for sharing. May I also post to the Yahoo group on Hawaiian Railroads?
