Although the Great Western Steam Up website mentions "Anne Marie" *sic, the engine was not present at the steam up with the only operational narrow gauge Porter present being Antelope & Western 1.

Just returned home from a week-end trip to LasVegas. This loco and the 2 truck shay are located at the Hacienda Hotel & Casino. The 0-4-0T is located at the front of the hotel and the shay is across the street at the top of a hill.

The 0-4-0T is missing the smokebox door and the shay has lost both headlights and all of the wood is rotting away. It was recently re-painted.
