Not out of service. It had compressor issues on the last day at Allentown and Auburn and the decision was made not to run .It is headed back home to take of them as well as some other teething issues that have come up after its rebuild. It isn't scheduled to be anywhere until march at Spencer.It had a tough assignment right out of the shop in Kentucky for three weeks then on to Allentown which is deceptively a workout for it as that line is ALL uphill the one way,not that steep just unrelenting.Crew felt better to take safest course of action for the engine as well as the riders. Rest assured it will be back in the spring ready for a full summer.

Thanks for clearing that up.

I have to say I thought that was a tough assignment for her first time out.

There are always teething problems that can't be predicted.

Sounds like she did well if the only issue is an air compressor.

A&A FB page mentioned a MAJOR issue so that is why I posted the question.

Regards,

Alan
