Folks,
I have always enjoyed the story told by Bob Richardson about #345 after the staged smash up.

The #346 was missing some of its sand dome hardware and a railroad employee met him "out in back" to give him the parts before the #45 went of to Colorado Fuel & Iron
or some such to be recycled. today the parts that were put there by baldwin are where they belong.

That's the story from memory. If anyone can cite where I read it in Iron Horse News; you can read the whole story!
