Since we are all telling Steve what to do with his operation, I'm going to add my irrelevant opinion to the mix and suggest he build a new steam locomotive from the ground up, designed specifically for the service he wants to provide, and incorporating all the developments that have evolved in the past 50 years since we gave up on steam.
