Hawaii Railway 2-4-2 No. 5 is now in Kent, CT in the collection of the Connecticut Antique Machinery Association. She was under steam as recently as two weeks ago at their annual Fall Festival, which is definitely worth a visit if you happen to find yourself in Connecticut the third weekend in September. Other narrow gauge equipment they have includes Argent Lumber Co. 2-8-0 No. 4, a caboose from the Tionesta Valley RR, and a couple of D&RGW high-side gondolas (Nos. 1132 and 1331) which are probably the easternmost pieces of surviving Rio Grande narrow gauge equipment.
