So is there any truth this the RUMOR MILL, that American Steam Railroad (Project Frisco 1352) has acquired Reading 2100?

IF SO, then are they be bringing 2 steamers with them to the B&O Roundhouse (Midwest Railway Preservation Society/GTW 4070)?

Enjoy? *_*

She left Tacoma in 2007, if memory serves. She's been sitting on a spur in Richland, which is on the 'brown' side of the state where not that much rain falls. It's not a bad place to be stored, climate-wise. Contrary to popular belief, most of WA and Oregon states are high deserts. The 'green' parts of WA state represent a small portion of the state, along the western Pacific coastline.
