Stored in a roundhouse, near where it used to run I believe. Joshua joshua@joshuakblay.com |

Here's what I know... I believe at some point about 10 years ago the owners of the engine (the Midwest Railway Historical Foundation) had a parting of the ways with the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic where the engine was running. The engine was moved to a roundhouse (in Cleveland I believe) and remains there, assembled. I remember reading where the foundation had not taken the engine apart for a rebuild until they had concrete funding and a place to run afterwords, a sound decision indeed. Long story short, the engine is safe and sound. Dave Crosby bing@epix.net |

Wouldn't it be nice to see a genuine USRA engine running by your window? Electric City Trolley Museum Association |
