In a recent press release, the EG&E announced that a crew has been hired for the 4807:

Apparently, the engineer is a German immigrant from the town of Preiser, while the fireman hails from Revell, a town on the outskirts of Revel(l)stoke, B.C.
(Rumours are that the fireman is a former 'bo who used to hang around sandhouses, but has supposedly "got religion".)
Sources speculate that crews for the Erie Northshore's four Mikados will soon follow, as those locomotives have long been remotely controlled.
