Does anyone know anything about a supposed old MKT Steam Engine sitting derelict on the Texas Crushed Stone / Georegetown RR property north of Round Rock, TX?

UP 844 is there right now getting it's wheels reprofiled following the recent incident. There is a drop table in the nearby Westinghouse building to remove the drivers.

The Austin Steam Train Association also owns former Southern Pacific 2-8-2 #786; it is down at their headquarters in Cedar Park undergoing an extended overhaul. I think it is also on the GRR.
