Amazing photographs. I dug around and found some sites on these engines and the USATC as a whole.

There is a 2-8-0 in England that I thought was on the Keighley & Worth Valley, but their website doesn't mention the engine. This engine appeared in YANKS. Wonder where it is now.

USATC5820 (ex Polish railways Ty203-474) is located in Haworth loco yard. After many years out of traffic some work has now started on the loco. There are seven other S160's in the UK but at least three are in many bits and only one - 5197 ex China KD6 463 is possibly in traffic on the Churnet Valley Railway.
