Yeah, I believe that all of the old "Survivor Puzzle" switches are gone now, replaced by hydraulic switches which are automated. Of course, the steam engines are pretty well gone too. I think they still have 4 intact steam engines on the property (2, 3, 6, 9), but only the 2 and the 9 are kept operational. The first run of the day is steam. Everything else is diesel. I keep hearing rumblings of a second steam run, but I'll believe it when I see it.
