Recently discovered slide of WP 165 in Stockton, California taken in 1952, ten years before going on static display in San Leandro, CA:

The WP 165 is now undergoing restoration at the Western Pacific Railroad Museum in Portola, California.

A fundraising drive is now underway:

WP FT-series locomotive #909 and Tidewater Southern GE 70-tonner # 742 share the scene.
