An industrial 0-4-0T, brought into the US by James Valesh of Oelwein, IA see: https://www.steamlocomotive.info/vlocomotive.cfm?Display=1469
was later bequeathed to his son, Keith, and subsequently sold in 2021. Does anyone happen to know who the purchaser was, and where it may have gone?

I don't have any info. on that 0-4-0T but you have a listing for Columbus & Southern Ohio Electric 0-4-0F No. 1 as being "lost". Well its been found, and is at the Mahoning Valley Railroad Heritage Association in Youngstown. It was never in Warren but bounced around other locations for a while before finally making its way to the MVRHA.

If you would like to update your listing you may use this photo that I took of No. 1

I believe this is it, 1941 build date in (occupied) Czechoslovakia, Edit I wonder if he really got $110k for it: https://selling.discoverlivesteam.com/i ... locomotive
Second edit: I checked some of the usual suspects (e.g., Silver Dollar City, who have a similar Czech engine and several contemporary German 600mm engines) and they don't have anything about picking it up.
