Liquidation of another museum collection

Where is the MonoLoco located? (doesn't look like Mono County, California) Also, the paint job is close to the shade of blue made famous by that benefactor of railway preservation, Thomas the Tank Engine. One more observation: Is MonoLoco an 0-2-0 or an 0-3-0? There appears to be another connecting rod going to a crank under the cab.

I think it was posted here but its not that stranger than truth but not so railroad oriented than museum historical related as some Cleveland Museum was selling off artifacts.

The Former Trollyville collection was a daunting task and it went all the right ways and so many of the cars will now get the attention they needed and so many of them will actually run!

Looking at my database, you are right, and the article is wrong. It is an 0-3-0. It is located at The Monorail Collection, Blaenau Ffestiniog, Gwynedd, Wales, UK.
