Do any of the Thomas operations use a restored Steam engine to give Thomas a boost?

I was there opening day of Thomasland, Yes the Edaville of old is gone but the new one isn't too bad. They ran two trains, one Thomas and one Edaville, which had the 11 on point. If it stays busy then they will need to run two trains and one will be Edaville and one Thomas, Plus the Atwood Spur is there and the remaining property that Edaville has access too does have enough land to rebuild the spur back to a longer loop, I've heard from fairly reliable sources that eventually that is the plan.
