Hey Rob! Here ya' go! Enjoy, On display at Kansas City Union Station On the way down to southern Cal. From what I had read, It was about to be destroyed in 2020 when a group of enthusiasts had her resurrected.

Just keep it washed and waxed, will you?

Guess I will have to start going back out to the museum - well as soon as Covid is over, my wife is still very iffy about it.

The last few years before Covid hit I mostly announced and did break/lunch reliefs for streetcar crew and train conductors.

Nice set of train engine photographs. I love railroad stuff, engines, cars, tracks. I have photographed quite a few myself. Thanks for posting.

Just make sure to bring a bucket of soapy water and a sponge!

Yeah, it was kind of cool. I thought it would be a bit more crowded. Maybe the heat kept people away.

I just found out that the museum is already raising money and hunting for parts to get her FRA certified to run off the museum property on the main line again. If necessary in the past museum members have made parts by hand in our machine shop-inherited from a railroad-machines are old but still work and we have members who can use them to make or refurbish a lot of stuff.
