I believe that the idea of the loan is to train the D&S personnel on oil burning, something that they are not likely too familiar with. The 18 is available & able to be trucked to their location. I don't think that the fact that she is considerably smaller takes away from her value during this loan. She's still an oil burning locomotive.
