John, they have steam. Don't know why they don't run it more. They have two steam engines that are rebuilt. Donweb1_20180904TS2

Great shot, Don!! That's Scott Johnson, the engineer at Grove Farm who gave me the tour; really nice guy.  Unless I was mistaken, I think he told me only Grove Farm has steam; none at Kauai Plantation. I think Scott told me they run steam at Grove Farm once or twice a month; whatever their frequency is, I missed it by a day or 2 on our most recent trip to Kauai but it was a fun tour just the same; Scott's love of Hawaii railroad history is infectious.
