Refurbished Arcade & Attica #18 Alco Steam Locomotive

Following the close of the 2001 passenger excursion season, #18 went into the A&A's workshops for a complete teardown and overhaul to bring it into compliance with the Federal Railroad Administration's new regulations on steam locomotive inspection and maintenance. Originally expected to last until halfway through the 2002 passenger season, the teardown revealed much more work needed to be done than originally anticipated. This video from 2008 shows the newly-refurbished #18 during one of her first runs following the complete overhaul.

Here's a video of what #18 looked like before the overhaul:
