SP 18 is in no way retired. Just because it isn't currently operating on the D&S doesn't mean it is retired. She will operate in July at the Nevada state railroad museum.
Posting info like this with "your opinion" needs to be described as such "YOUR OPINION ". Someone else could come along later and see "SP 18 retired" and think those of us in the C&Cry group gave up and parked her. This of course is not true. If your going to post inaccurate information to please your own ego make sure it has a disclaimer that is for your own made up list or get your facts straight.
I've stood up for you before Andrew but this one annoys me.
