An excellent set of pages for this Mogul, from the group at Tucson:

Lots of photos of the engine at various eras.

Compare the size and complexity of the truck/trailer "needed" to move the locomotive in 1955 and 2000.

Do you suppose the locomotive gained that much weight in 45 years?

She was moved in 1952 using "lost technology" that couldn't be duplicated later without a much bigger truck/trailer!
