It's originally an engine that was an ore hauler in Michigan called the Lake Superior & Ishpheming, and it looked nothing like it does now. While they are different classes of 2-8-0's numbers 33 and 34 are operational...33 was recently restored into LS&I livery by Jerry Jacobson (Former Ohio Central Owner), and the 34 is now made up to be Western Maryland 734 on the Cumberland based tourist line to Frostburg known as the Western Maryland Scenic. 33 and 34 are bigger 2-8-0's than 18.
