Re: C&S Locomotives

Makes perfect sense - there are more items out there than good homes sadly, so those still "in the wild" are always most at risk. These cars are now all 120-140 years old, and even with rebuilding in some case, time and weather aren't kind and sadly, the owners rarely have a concept of significance of some cars. What the group has done at Como is truly remarkable, and the focus of this group to gather what artifacts remain from the C&S and predecessors we should all be thankful for.

Tim, was the 3rd car you mentioned another RGS refugee, or did it never leave the C&S? Also, do you have a number of the 2nd car to be saved? I had known that the 8179 was in existence, but had no idea that a second had been located.
