Glen Bell Jr. has passed away. In addition to saving locomotives, Mr. Bell also found time to found a restaurant chain. Here's the link to a news report on his passing:
National Public Radio: Glen Bell, Founder Of Taco Bell, Has Died

For the benefit of the youngsters on this board, here's a link to an old NGDF message describing Glen Bell's steam activities: Ed Kelley - "Taco Bell..." NGDF post from November 19, 2004

Can anyone fill in more information and/or point to articles on his preservation work?
