It is an H.K. Porter, built for the U.S. Army in 1944-46 time period. It is leaving Versailles via R.J. Corman's railline to Lexington |

Ex-Bluegrass RR Museum, ex-U.S. Army H.K. Porter #717, affectionately known as "Piglet", left Versailles, KY in late September on a flatcar via R.J. Corman's RR to Lexington. Connecting in Lexington to Norfolk Southern from there it will travel west to a new home in California. Someone else with that group will have to give further details |
