  05mike.jpg - Engine No. 19 - In 1977, the White Pass & Yukon Railroad in Skagway, Alaska, provided SVRR with two original Sumpter Valley Railroad (SVR) Schenectady 2-8-2 "Mikes" (diesel-powered locomotives, numbered 19 and 20) with the stipulation they be removed from Skagway by July 1, 1977. The SVRR managed to do just that, and after a four-year restoration process, No. 19 travels the rails between McEwen and Sumpter. The 19 and 20 were the only two locomotives purchased for the SVR new and to their specifications.
