Have been offered a what seems to be the remains of a standard gage 0-6-0 comprised of the bar frames (less cylinders and main rods and valve gear and guides etc), boxes, springs and wheels with siderods, a cab, and about half the boiler. It was apparently being converted to some sort of IC drive with a gearbox and chain drive to an axle. <p>As if that isn't bad enough, it was painted PINK. The poor thing rusts at Georgia Agrirama at present. Does anybody know the history of this locomotive? I want to find a reason to get excited about its preservation, but..........<p>Dave<br> lathro19@idt.net |
