Just came across a short video posted yesterday on EBT’s Facebook page showing #16 steamed up and blowing her whistle! Can’t figure out how to post a link here… perhaps someone with more Facebook savvy could figure out how to share it??

I found a version on YouTube (hope this is the one you mentioned)…
That is good news, Jon!
Thank you for the video, Paul!
Thanks Paul! That is the clip, I couldn’t find it on YouTube… thanks for posting it!
Awesome! Not since 1956, I believe.
Yep, Jim… first steam in 66 years!!! Also found this article which has a better pic of the current state of the restoration.
Wow! I did not realize #16 hadn't been running since 1956! I was born in 1956!
I think one of the topics I started talked about EBT, which I didn't know was so close. I had looked over the roster of engines and was disappointed at the time to see that it had not been fired for such a long time. Now things have changed. 👍
