I think there was mention and maybe a pic. of a Pacific in Darwell earlier in this thread. Was it pulling the sled and if so, how did it do?

The very last Pacific that was built was a P12 special order for a Coal mine in Soda Springs, Idaho, and is still in use as of 2021. The truck was built in the Parts Warehouse. The lucky guys that built the truck got to go for rip around the block to test drive truck, good thing they did as there was a problem with rear Diff.
