Just happened to think about the equipment at the Knox and Kane in regard to some information gathering I'm doing, and was curious to know what if anything became of Mr. Cornell's stuff. I am curious to know what they had and if any of it is still around.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Mike

Mike,

That is a good question.

Their SY would be a good locomotive for some railroad if it could be made available.

The last that I heard, everything had been moved from Marienville up to Kane in one big deadhead move late last year (November?).

There are probably others that could speak to the current situation with greater certainty than I, but I do not believe that the SY or H&BTM 38 are for sale.

Both steam engines were moved to Kane along with the Alco (RS32?). The Alco and a few misc pieces are for sale, but the steam locomotives and passenger cars were not (last I knew).

I had read on another forum that the RS-36 was going to be cut up and its prime mover will go to marine use.
