I think it went to the Hawaiian RR society at Ewa. In between it may have been with the Bishop Museum. I could be wrong, I'm doing this from memory.

Additional thought. It went to the Bishop Museum and sat outside. It had weather deterioration there as large outdoor objects was not that museum's field of interest.
