Following is series of shots taken 14 July 2021 of ATSF 735 at the Old Mill Museum in Lindsborg, KS. She is a 2-8-0 oil burning steam engine from a by-gone era. Markings on driver are LS 4043 LFM Co. Serial No. 823. The building along side her is the UPRR depot from Lindsborg. Do not know if they are going to try to restore her or not but hope so. This locomotive was first given to the city of Hutchinson. Do not know how it got here. Enjoy.

Enjoyed viewing the series!
It does need restoration for display.
Volunteers could do it with knowledgeable leadership.
This could be a draw for visitors.

It is a shame that they cannot raise some money to at least do a little sandblasting and repainting. Some Rustoleum. It is a great beast and should be treated with respect.

Yep, the poor old girl needs some tender loving care. Bet she would look great with a restore.
