SP18 and a steamy start in Silverton - 9-3-2021
| September 03, 2021 07:11PM |
Yesterday SP18 ran as helper to the regular train to Silverton. Today the engine powered a photo freight for the TRAINS charter. 493 and SP18 spent the night next to the Silverton depot. The first action for the day was to move SP18 to the fire hydrant north of the depot for filling the tender.
