Does anyone know where the AT&SF "Vista Cavern" and AT&SF 1558 ended up after their sale by Ozark Mountain?

Thanks...Craig

Vista Cavern is still in Walled Lake, MI and just a reminder, the owner does NOT like pictures taken if on his property. 1558 was shipped via CSX & Ferromex to Mexico some time ago.

Thanks for the update, Aaron

Who owns the Vista Cavern? Are there any plans to use it as a PV or in an excursion service?

Thanks....Craig

I do not know what the plan is for the car, or who owns it. I am, although, pretty sure it will not be returning to the PV status.

Has not yet been shipped due to the trucks and wheels currently under it. Other means of transportation are being looked at.
