In a thread below, someone mentioned a steam engine at the Belton Grandview & Kansas City Railroad. I was wondering if anyone knows the history, and current situation, of this outfit. I think that this is the organization from which the Illinos Railway Museum bought two of the more impressive internal combustion engines in our collection: UP turbine #18 (pictured below) and UP "Centennial" #6930. I know that the Belton organization has had some nice equipment, including the only surviving Rock Island E6A, but I don't know much about this outfit or its current operations. Can anyone offer some insight?
