CKSR has not been a commercial success and services were abandoned at the end of October 2004.

The future is unclear, but it is understood that the equipment is available for sale.

She kind of looks like one of the Norfolk Southern 2-8-4s that ended up in Mexico.

To bad things did not work out. Looks like a great locomotive.
