I vaguely seem to recall that this 0-6-0 got sold to an industry and survived into the 1960s before being scrapped. Anyone remember more about it? http://cgi.ebay.com/Photo-Negative-Waba ... dZViewItem |

I'll have to dig around in my photos. There was a Wabash 0-6-0 at a gravel pit in Glencoe, MO years ago and I took a photo of it but don't remember the number any more. This would have been late '50s. |

Sister Wabash 0-6-0 #534 still exists at the Ft. Wayne Railroad Historical Society in New Haven, Indiana in an unrestored condition. One of only two Wabash steam locomotives that survived. Perhaps Kelly, or someone else from that group, can tell us FtWRHS's plans for the locomotive. Les |
