Hi my name is Michael Arnold and I am the 20 year old project manager on the Cosmetic Restoration of BEDT 16 at the railroad Museum of Long Island. Does anyone know if there are any Porter web sites or any information on the 16 or any of her BEDT 16 Sisters.
Thank You,
Mike Arnold

BEDT #16 resided at the foot of my street in Williamsburg Brooklyn for years after getting kicked out of the enginehouse on Kent Ave. I used her perch as a landmark for vistors. A famous photographer friend's photo of her hangs on a wall of my office.

For those who don't already know on this list, BEDT #16 was the last steam loco in operation in New York City, 1962.

I may be able to relay some stories I've heard about this loco if you want.
