If this old steam engine could talk it would have a great story. Built in 1929 for the Grand Trunk Railroad and sold for scrap to the Northwestern Steel and wire company in 1959 it survived with 16 others to do switching operations up untill 1980 when it was retired to this siding near Galt Illinois. It was donated to the Illinos railroad Museum in the 80s and just recently it was sold to a private collector and will be moved to Nebraska within the next year.
