on display and looking cared for in UP greyhound paint. She looks like she's ready to have a fire in her belly and head out for a fast run at the head of a mail and express train. http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.p ... 4&nseq=117 |

The gray U.P. paint scheme looks really nice on the locomotive. How many of her parts remain with her? I'm guessing she's been a donor of some for 3985? |

When #3985 was converted to oil burning in about 1990, the tender was converted using the oil bunker from #3977's tender. I remember reading that other minor parts were swapped in the original restoration of #3985- not sure which ones though. |
