The 191 is the best looking piece of equipment on the lot. It also represents an historic sector of which nothing else remains. After it's recent workover, it has never looked so good in the last 100 years.
I only WISH the other holders of 1880's vintage locomotives would restore them back to their early appearance. We have enough post-1900 looking gear still running.
