Is this locomotive still there? Does anyone have a current photo of it?

I've always wondered about this locomotive myself.
The locomotive was still there when I visited in August 2015. It is located in a gondola behind the NKP GP30.
Are there any plans for it?

My photo from 2015:

It was sold to a private owner who lived in Dover, OH. I hauled it to his house last April. Last I heard he had been transferred to Georgia and was taking it down there. It was the most rotted and worn out locomotive that I have ever seen!

Glad to know it will be taken care of! Was the "corpse" on the trailer all that could be salvaged?

And, does anyone know the history of this locomotive? How did it arrive in Bellevue, and why was it left to rot for decades?

That was the second load. The first had the boiler shaped object and the saddle tank. The boiler reminded me of the one on the Spang Chalfant 0-6-0 at Steamtown with the number of holes in it.

Any updates as to where this locomotive ended up in Georgia?
