Boston and Maine 0-6-0, Billerica.

Back in the 90's I visited Mass. on business several times. I stumbled across this 0-6-0 near some RR shops in Billerica. I think it was 1991 or 1992. Does anyone know the fate of this gem? I had always hoped it went to a good home but never got back there or could find info on this engine. It says H.E. Fletcher on the tender and you can plainly see the B&M herald. Thanks

B&M #410 was eventually moved from Billerica and is now in Lowell, MA -- and nicely restored by B&MRR Historical Society volunteers. B&M #444, (the loco Joshua linked to) was also a Fletcher engine, has been cosmetically restored, and is on display at the Chautauqua County Fairgrounds in Dunkirk, NY.

Stephen -

How about a little information on the other equipment displayed with the two B&M 0-6-0's?

What is an internal look at either of these locomotives going to show?
