Bill,

FWIW, Pere Marquette 1223 was located at the Michigan State Fairgrounds but was moved across the state to Grand Haven, many years ago. It's well maintained on the waterfront, next to the old PM coaling tower. Coupled to it is a box car and two cabooses.

1225 used to be on display just south of Michigan state's football stadium until it was moved to Owosso to be restored to operation. It is my understanding that 1223 may have donated a few critical parts to get 1225 back into service.

Chuck
