When still in the park at Douglas, Wyoming. A coal burner, it never ran here, but was assigned to the eastern lines of CB&Q (at least in later years). A few years ago, it was rolled out of the park on snap track, with the other cars attatched, then placed in a new site by the depot, with the cars sitting at odd angles to each other.

Wooly,
That was before my time with the #261 crew, but I believe that 5631 was the "other" O5 that Steve looked at. She is over in Sheridan, WY, and is another locomotive displayed where she never operated. But at least the "Q" saw fit to save her, so we are all richer for that.
