Good to see they are doing a thorough job repairing her.

Probably part of the learning curve, man. There’s probably more forgotten about running steam than there is known about it now.

Thankfully they caught it before it was too late.

You don’t want to rush things and end up doing a poor job. Just remember poor K-4 1361

K-4 1361. Groannnnnnnnn…

I still can’t understand how that turned into a total FUBAR situation.

OK, I can understand, but I STILL can’t understand, if you know what I mean.

Yes I know what you mean. It was a shocker thats for certain. Of all the locomotives the K4, which had been talked about and anticipated for decades really. I understand the situation today is not looking too good either.
