Well we did it Geneva is back home at the Como roundhouse after leaving the DSP&P for the last time 72 years ago.
A great day had by all and Como is just a staggering place of beauty and history, the DSP&P and Dave at the Como eating house are an amazing band of people. Thanks to those that donated money for transportation and time. Even this rescue took 4 months and over $1500 to accomplish, but what a great result, no more neglect and abuse of this wonderful artifact.
And where was it posted first ? Narrow Gauge Discussion Forum of course !!
