Both articulated boilers were lifted off of the frames in Escuintla in early 1972 IIRC..

Last time that I was there in January of 1977, the Road Foreman & I looked the boilers over.
If there was further use for either of them, I would be surprised.

On the same note, some of the 150 series Mikado boilers had already been sold to nearby fincas (plantations).
