On a recent vacation trip through western Arkansas, I happened onto this operation at Queen Wilhelmina State Park. The guy running the train tells me that they have 2 G-16s on line but one is currently being overhauled and repainted into the KCS's new "Southern Belle" scheme. They run on about 2 miles of track atop Rich Mountain just west of Mena, Arkansas. Go check it out next time you're in that part of the world!

Here's a photo taken of an Ottaway on the Sonora Short Line Ry., spring 1998. The locomotive was in transit between CA and KS. (Well it had to be trucked part of the way)

This one shown is mostly stock with only a few minor modifications. The one following it is a modified Ottaway belonging to the SSLRy.
