In J.David Conrad's book; the Fero Unides De Yucatan #29 is listed.

the locomotive is the only survivor of the Yosemite Valley Railway and was their #29. she is or was a BLW 2-6-0 from 1922 as c/n 55275

Does any one know if it is still with us? If not, when was she scrapped?

Thanks,

Ted Miles

Construction #55275 is, I think, on display at the Ferrosur Terminal in Veracruz, Mexico.
