Those steam trips with #19 between Elgin and Wallowa are going to be a killer from the get-go. Yreka #19 & 18 average about 12 gallons of oil per mile of operation. This works out to approximately 950 gallons per round-trip. Even re-claimed motor oil at $2 per gallon will run $1,900 fuel costs alone. Those 3 directors need a quick education on steam locomotive costs before going much further with this plan.
