Excellent topic Mike.
I had never really thought through the implications of cold starts and cold weather as it applies to the Effingham Railroad. I know that EFRR 2716 [SW 1200] is kept inside the TQW warehouse, while ILW 7570 is most frequently parked on the Hodgson Mill siding which may indicate access to an outside power point for a possible crankcase heater.
