Still well taken care of at the Shelburne Museum near Burlington, VT. In fact while I was there, tools, drop lights and ladders were leaning against the firebox area. Not sure who was doing what, but it's always nice to see an outdoor display getting attention. I do wish the shelter was a little more open...

Renovations are being conducted by RYPN founder, Bob Yarger, amongst others. So glad to see this locomotive under a roof. Thanks for the great image, Stephen! Thans for the hours on the 220, Bob and friends!

Thanks, Richard -I know Bob has been taking care of the 220 for many years, but I asked who was doing the work and Bob's name wasn't mentioned. Too bad because it would have been great to say hi! I'll bet the person I spoke with just didn't know...

She sure looks like she's, "ready to rumble!"
