Do you (or anyone for that matter) know why Yreaka Western is selling #19?  I looked on their website, but it does not say anyting about the sale.  It even says that you will ride in vintage cars pulled by a 1915 2-8-2 Baldwin #19.

Number 19 was used on Cottage Grove and Eastern's road for the filming of "Emperor of the North."  Ernie Borgnine was "Shack," the ruthless freight conductor and nemesis of Lee Marvin, a knight of the road.
