Thanks for the compliment !

The 425 is being dismantled !

WHAT ? Chust a minit na ! (-insert Pa. Dutch accent)

She is being dismantled for the FRA ultrasound / boiler inspection. The results of that will determine where-when-if the restoration efforts will continue.

Meanwhile, 2102 is resting comfortably, inside, unlike 614 ssshivvverrring in the cold and snow...

Steve,

Are the New Hope and Ivyland guys doing the ultrasound work on BM&R 425?

I want to know how the # 425 went to Steamtown under its own power and was used on excursions, but came back behind a U23B.
