DON,

  Good Luck with the Lokie.  I learned a lot with that little engine.  Not that tough to fire up and run.  Had some problems one year with the tubes and they were all replaced.  That was an experience for sure. 

  As a side note on the Lokies from the Pioneer Tunnel.  They were purchased in 1962 from a mining operation in Hazleton, my hometown.  The two Lokies that they purchased were run by my next door neighbors who were brothers.  I didn't know this till I got the job at the Tunnel.  My MOM asked me about the engines and their numbers and she was right that the two engines were ran by the neighbor brothers.  Small world.
