LV 119 is setting at the end of our 2 nd west house track. Safe and sound. When we get the scrap cleaned up behind it. (not rail related scrap) And the weather brakes I will move it closer to the house or in, space permiting and do some work to bring it back to life. As I said before it's not going to be scrapped. I would really like to restore it and use it on the L & WV. I think the LV colors but L & WV letttering would make a nice looking unit. The biggest problem we had when running it was the lower linner seals in the block.( Straight B) Even the oversize seals leaked. Very pitted. Anyone know where to get an AC or BC or in a perfect world a C block 6 cylinder. I know the PB & NE had some AC,s a few years back in storage but have not been able to get ahold of Dale Boyer about it. |
