On display today at Ione, California, sheltered, but in need of a lot of work:

I am thinking this locomotive had a different number while on the McCloud. Looks like it could use an asbestos abatement job, and a fresh coat of paint, maybe the speeder guys who lease the Amador Central could take on a cosmetic restoration? At least it is now under cover.

Amador Central is ex-McCloud River #8. I have a bunch of early photographs of it on McCloud Rails at:
