I noticed in the article that it mentions that some of the equipment went to the Sumpter Valley. Here is a shot of a Plymouth critter that we got years ago from Camas. I believe it originally had a gas engine, but has had a fairly reliable White-Hercules diesel as long as I have been around SVRR. We also have 3 of the small industrial non-air brake equipped flat cars similar to what is shown in the article. The last I knew 2 of the 3 are serviceable for MOW.
