Nice!
I looked at #18 about 23 years ago when doing a camping trip along the C&C ROW from Keeler to just northeast of Montgomery pass. The dry climate in Owens Valley helped keep the rust down.
I also remember some of the C&C rolling stock on display on the grounds of the Nevada State Capitol building in the 1960's.

Well done Carson and Colorado!
Steam dead? No, steam will never die. There's too many people out there who love it too much. And what is this but a labor of love? Love conquers all, as they say.
SP #18, which last ran on SP's narrow gauge Owens Valley branch was steamed up for the first time since being retired 60 years ago. The group is hoping to re-install rail between Independence and Owenyo, CA. The line was originally built as the Carson & Colorado.
