December 2011[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia.

Strasburg RR[edit]

Pacific Lumber #37 was purchased in November 2003 by the Timber Heritage Association in California for a museum and was moved to Strasburg that spring.[1] Your conclusion that the "dates these engines arrived and departed are unknown is because all that's known for them are the photographs of these engines from this site" is not at all accurate. We do know when locomotives arrived or departed Strasburg, it just takes a little more research. ​​​​​​​​Niagara ​​Don't give up the ship 00:24, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The statements above by Niagara are correct. My conversations were first-hand with employees of the Strasburg Rail Road working on the project. A vice president of the railroad has presented information about this engine here: [2] The engine is oil-fired and would not be suitable for use in Strasburg's regular operations.

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Strasburg Rail Road. Your edits have been reverted or removed.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in you being blocked from editing. ​​​​​​​​Niagara ​​Don't give up the ship 15:41, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The evidence you provided would not be considered a reliable source and would not satisfy WP:VERIFY (Wikipedia's verifiability policy). ​​​​​​​​Niagara ​​Don't give up the ship 21:34, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
First sentence of the verifiability page: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth—whether readers can check that material in Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether editors think it is true." If there is other corroborating evidence from reliable sources (e.g. newspapers, press releases from the railroad) then there would be no problem, but so far I have found nothing that confirms that the locomotive is actively being restored. ​​​​​​​​Niagara ​​Don't give up the ship 05:25, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Corris Railway No.8[edit]

The loco is owned by the coal museum and is on indefinite long-term loan to the railway, which is why it is included in the railway's loco numbering system. RGCorris (talk) 12:26, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
