Where's the UP 428 at?  If you're good you should help out with the CNW 1385 at Mid Continent!  Welcome (yourself!) locojacket!  Sign - Welcome [#welcome]

The 428 is a 2-8-0 being restored at IRM in Union, IL.

Unless you are a boiler builder, and have some major cash to donate, you are probably not much use to the 1385.

On the other hand, MCRWY is printing next year's pamphlets with photos of WC&C #1 on them, because it will be running the fall color trains.
