Current plans are to operate steam locomotive number 4 around the yard this summer pushing passenger coach #104. Currently the locomotive has completed its ultrasound and hydro testings and will soon have it's lagging and sheets reinstalled. The boiler was found to be in great condition after it's 1993/94 rebuild. Work is also being done on the cylinders and hopefully the locomotive will be under steam sometime in June or July. Watch for news on the M&PP website.
