Unfortunately, I think it's gone, like the Lima Works where it worked. http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?may03/05-08-03/lima3.jpg ryarger@rypn.org |

An electric-generating plant is planned for the site, with some talk of a "memorial" of sorts to the Loco being set up in one of the remaining structures. Stay tuned.......BTW, there is a Shay on display in Lima, a mile or so north of the Loco, on Metcalf St., at the Allen County Museum. It is a small n.g. lokey that never left town, having toiled at a local gravel pit. The Museum is planning some major renovation projects, so don't know if the little Shay will get moved. Stay tuned....again... justighe@bright.net |
