Hi, As I recall it, it was painted a blue color but it has been too long. The one I recall was a lot heavier but again, I've not seen it in years. It was more like Georgia Power 97 now at Southeastern Railway Museum. https://www.train-museum.org/locomotives-rolling-stock/locomotives/ But with a saddle tank IIRC. I first saw in in 1973 when I started attending GA Tech. It was painted green all over then. Doug vV |

Hi, I do not recall seeing her but add a pair of drivers and she's about what I recall seeing (all green though). The scrap yard own wanted a steamer but was not a rail fan or historian. Doug vV |

Doug, I think that was the Poss Iron Works 0-4-0T. It's been probably 25 years since I last saw her....... and the Poss works was shutting down and moving away at that time. |

One thing that has never been made clear is whether Jvtrains was asking how to get title to a particular locomotive or was he asking where he could get a free locomotive. |

Look for locomotive/locomotives for sale or other like you would get with people or a city/government wonting to scrap or sale a good look , not looking for working order looking for rebuild /restoration locomotive . |
