Nope, sorry Bob, its not. It was purchased by a guy in Mayville, Michigan, who also purchased the old Vassar Depot. I tried for most of my high school years to get someone in Port Huron interested in it, but to no avail. Its only a 90-footer, and it has been used since about 1975, which is about when the roundhouse was torn down.
Trust me, if it were, I would be doing everything I could to get it back here!
