Casey Jones railbus

I understand the old Silverton Northern "Casey Jones" railbus, long displayed at Silverton, is now operable. Were any readers of the list involved in this? Would be interesting to learn what was done in the restoration. I think it has an ancient Cadillac flathead V-8 power plant.

Twin ignition, no less.

Actually, it looks like there are just 8 spark plugs. The other things must be priming cups, to ease starting.
