Goodman No. 9 has been at Mid-Continent since 1988. Today's event was moving the locomotive from the display track where it has been for many years, lifting it, turning it end for end and placing it under cover. VERY happy to see this loco out of the weather! She has seen better days, but with some TLC can be made very presentable, indeed.

The combine is a narrow gauge car.

This is the link to the Mid-Continent page about the car:
Chicago & North Western #1099

The box car is also narrow gauge.
