#5's tender is now at the roundhouse for some future restoration work. #1 and 2 I recall is similar to C&S moguls 21 & 22 and had similar problems to them. #3 and #4 were nearly identical locomotives and parts from both exist in the form of a frame from one and the boiler and woodchips from the cab of another at the Huckleberry Railroad in Flint. I believe a tender also existed near the roundhouse but may have been scrappes during the cleanup in the 80s.

#5 is very close to C-17s and #6 was like one of the Crystal River locomotives


There are still a few other surviving narrow gauge or ex narrow gauge locomotives from the area around. Ex Mohawk, Traverse and Gay/Phoenix Mining Co 2 truck climax was pulled out of a swamp in Romayor TX and now sits at a resort there, Calumet & Hecla Mason Bogie #3 still runs at Greenfield Village near Detroit and a C&H 0-4-0 is at the Houghton County Historical society awaiting boiler work
