Dislocated Alabama 2-8-0 (Birmingham & Southeastern 200), now Valley RR's 97, when it ran out of Burlington, Vermont on the Vermont Railway in 1966:

Still running in Connecticut last I knew, well cared for by Dave Conrad and the crew.

The torpedo-boat passenger GP, the 40-foot steel C&O boxcar, the outside-braced boxcar....all razor blades now. 97? It was pulling passenger trains at the moment you posted its 40-year old picture.
