We have talked with the White Pass and they know we would like to make a deal for at least one of these cars and we do have the money in place to make a deal happen. However, the WP&Y can not make any deal on these cars just yet because they still have an urgent need for them.
As the WP&Y continue to upgrade their passenger fleet, these cars may become surplus. This will not happen this year and I have doubts about 2008 but we will see.
Personally, I don’t even really like the turtleback design but they were built new for the SVRy so we would like to have one or more of them back down here in Oregon.
