There was a town in the upper midwest that was thinking about pushing a steam locomotive into a hole due to asbestos. I assume nothing has been scrapped at Jim Thorpe. There was an 0-4-0T sold on ebay about 2 years ago. Is Stewartstown still with us? |

It is my understanding that Stewartstown RR wants to try and operate Easter trips the last two weekends of this month. Alan Maples |

From what I can recall clearer heads have prevailed and things are progressing on a cosmetic restoration I hope? Joshua |

The locomotive in question is Soo Line 4-6-2 #735 at Minot, ND, I believe. Don C. |

...And qualified personel from the local Air Force Reserve unit did indeed do the asbestos abatement. |

the tourist operation in Biddeford Maine that has a restaurant that looked like a Great Northern Station and a loop of 2 foot gauge track near teh building? I think there was a connection with the Seashore Trolley Museum but nothing electric about the site as far as I can see. What happened to the standard gauge EBT locomotive thatwas in Indiana or someplace like that? I think it was a 0-6-0 switcher. Ted Miles |

Ted Miles Still at the Whitewater Valley RR, disassembled. See http://www.spikesys.com/EBT/News/6sale.html Not much has changed since then to my knowledge. |
