Who pays for these highway moves of the 18? Anyone know? They are not inexpensive, though I think they use a roll-on/roll-off low-boy trailer set-up. |

In this instance the NSRM paid for 18s transportation to the event. Yes 18 was loaded onto a low boy trailer. SP caboose 401 from the Laws museum also made the trip to Carson City. Now 18 has a proper car to haul around the museum. |
