I had the occasion today to talk with managers from some of the railroads that had been mentioned previously as possibly sending equipment, and they confirmed exactly what Steamtown Observer reported, not only in the list of equipment that will not be there, but also in the reasons some of it is not coming.
There were also some comments that the missing diesels should have little effect on the turnout, since viewing them a short distance from where they normally are maintained really isn't that big a draw, and the other activities being featured at the event are mostly steam oriented.
