Never did get to ride behind this lady. Was supposed to on an SOU. excursion but she developed fire box trouble and we rode behind NKP 765. Sad she hasn't felt the life giving heat of a fire since. At least she's protected and safe.

2716 was used buy the SOU until they cracked her firebox. then the gave her back to the KRM who they where barrowing her from KRMs rails are to low grade to take 2716s weight plus over years in storge her boiler flues have rusted out. the museum estimates that 5 million dollers will be needed the restore her to operateing condition, plus new rails that will take her weight
