SP 1744 on first mainline test run Sept. 9,  2000.
Pictured L to R top;Gary (Owlhead) McCord, William (Black Stack) Balzen, Top middle: David Morris. On the ground L to R; Cy Maitin, Richard Benton, Joe Dale Morris (who was ramrod on the project), John "Luther" Seay, Ron Larson, Richard Lohse. The 1744 preformed just as good as she did 99 years before. The work on this engine took us over a year and over $600,000 to restore. She was built in 1901 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works.
