Due to the limited load this locomoive can handle the railroad has decided to only cosmetily restore the locomotive.

The restoration of this engine has been put on hold so that the Shay(11), Heisler(91),Climax(10),Willamette(2) and mikado(70) can be shopped and restored.  Her tender will take a LOT of work for use and the boiler will need some work as well.  All of the other 5 engines are in much better(operating) condition.  70 will be done soon followed by the Willamette in the next 2 years.  This engine is sadly on hold, but 2 of her sister Rayonier engines are getting their much needed turn through the shops.
