@indie1361 only time will tell. hopefully she will be put to good use, though

@koasterkidd yea, your right, they dont need it. Besides, 26 and 113 ARE pretty similar. I wonder where they will send it?
-
@indie1361 just wait, matt, there's a lot of progress being made on 26. you'll find out soon enough

Sorry, wasn't very clear. Is it going to be operating at Steamtown maybe? The NPS needs it.

Steamtown?

Congratulations, It's been a long process but the hard work payed off. Look forward to seeing it all done. Hopefully, you'll get to run close to home. Interesting fire door, like a clam shell version of a alligator door. Shame the switch back and the Williamson branch are gone. Would have been a kool place for you guys to run.
Our president said something once about taking it to steamtown to work the bugs out of it and fine tune it if once it is able to move under its own power but nothing was concrete, it would be cool to see it on their turntable under steam though. Not really sure what we are going to do with it. The idea now is for it to be an "engine for hire" type of thing.

Dose this engine sit on abandoned trackage?

Yes it does, not much left of it though, a couple thousand feet and then it ends.

@atsf7809 Most of the rods are on not all yet, the eccentric isnt hooks up yet. It will be moving next spring though.

@TVRM610 the CNJ 113 is a large 0-6-0, in fact it is the largest and heaviest 0-6-0 ever built
