Also, if you go to the Narrow Gauge Discussion Forum at

http://ngdiscussion.net/phorum/list.php?1

You can see a photo I posted in the last couple of days with 346 and all wheels on the ground at the museum .... she split a switch about two weeks ago.

I guess I did not realize work on the 346 had progressed this far. When was this photo taken?
