Great shot. Whats the story? Looks too much like a museum piece to be scrapped.

I just finished reading the story behind this at Train Orders, i gotta say you guys did an AMAZING job with the supplies you had. Whether the paint would have lasted or not, its really a shame this was cut up especially after all your hard work. Do you think you can post the rest of the shots, especially the night shot with fireworks here? I cant view the images at TO since im not a member.

That is a fine looking engine which brings back fading memories of a more glorious time in railroading for me.

Okay, if you are going to restore something, then you have later thoughts about it getting scrapped??? Whoever had thoughts of that needs brain surgery!
