As I recall the Ohio Central bought a couple Fairbanks-Morse H-12/16-44's from a North Carolina railroad a couple years ago are they operable?

Made me think about the AC&Y one in TX. Anybody have any idea what the odds might be of ever getting that one back to Ohio? Would make a great addition to the station/caboose display in Copley, OH. Then all we would need would be one of the preserved Mather design boxcars for a nice little train.<g>

We have three 1953 H12-44s (ex US Army) at the Heart of Dixie RRM in Calera, AL. I know one was operational when parked. They used to be the main power but, haven't been used for several years.
