i see that the 611 is right where water can drip on it from the two buildings.

Part of the overhang still needs some fixing.

@HaloCE14 #3001 would take some major work. She has a hole in her firebox, and many other parts of the loco need rebuilding. From what I hear, #2933 is just in bad shape overall. It's quite a shame.

@HaloCE14 Good for them.

@trainmandan05 They must have a money tree somewhere to restore a 2-8-8-2 Y class.

@jedi725 A mini-version of the 611 was there.
