I think an evaluation of the engine and possibly it's display location was next on the schedule. I have not heard anything lately but considering it is winter I am not suprised.

The Soo depot in town is in great shape as well. mmitscher@catena.com |

Originally we had a report in RyPN that the Minot 4-6-2 had a problem with asbestos and thus there was a problem with the locomotive. You say in your post that the "Soo depot in town is in great shape as well." I'm not sure if it really IS in great shape or if you were talking with "tongue in cheek." midlandblb@cs.com |
