The #111, obtained from the city of Breckenridge with a trade of another Locomotive (C&S #9) has been in restoration in Strasburg Colorado since at least 2006. More money was needed to restore it but the CHS refused to pay more than the agreed price so now it is slowly being peiced back together but I'm not sure if it will be operational without more money. It is a large outside frame 2-8-0 and it would be very useful to pull longer loop trains. From what I heard it has around the tractive effort of the former GTL engines 40 and 44.
