This 2009 promotion now has significant amounts of unsourced material, and in general has not been properly maintained. The history section ends in the 1990s, and much of the sourcing is from the early to mid 2000s or earlier. I do not believe steamlocomotive.com is a reliable source, as well. The prose also needs improvement and is no longer up to our standards for GA. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 17:26, 15 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
