ok. i dint know 18 went out of service after The "little gaint" got there. What gets me is the engine they kept running. 18 had what was nicked named on the SPNG as monkey motion(sorry i cant remeber is this early), while no.9 had stevonson. For the sake of maitnence i would have though they would keep 18 instead of 9.

*p.s* Execpt for the 8, no.9 and 18 are in good shape for display. 18 is the closest to running while no.9 could be with money. All they both realy need now are flues. no.9 has all here equipment on here. They dont have theifs out there luckly. lol
