here is some info from Conrad's Directory on #85
4-6-0, CYL: 13X18, BP: 160, DD: 43, TE:9000, EW:68000, WOD:48,000, F
il, G:36", CN48585, Date: 10/1910, Alco (Cooke)
Locomotive operated for a few years at Traveltown in LA, CA, then on static dispplay until traded to LK&P for possible restoration. Locomotive was torn down, and a rebuild started, a new bioler was obtained but was not useable, thus #85 currently sits taken apart.... Some would like to see her returned to Oahu...
