Five FP45's are in Museums:
90=ORM (Oklahoma? Ry Museum)
92=Illinois Ry. Musem (accounted for above)
93=GPTM (please translate)
95=WARM (Barstow CA station exhibit)
98=OERM (Orange Empire Ry. Museum, Perris CA) believed to be the only operable unit in this group. (It was a major thrill to run this unit on Members' night)
Info from G. C. Crossett's ATSF diesel roster and personal observation.
(You know you're getting old when: A locomotive that you photographed when it was the newest unit on your favorite RR winds up in the museum you joined before it was built)

I believe that FP45 #97 is in the collection of "Age of Steam" Museum in Dallas.
