The Museum of Transportation in St Louis has some amazing engines on display.
The only surviving steamer from the Chicago elavated before electrification.
A Lakawana Camelback that has recently been given a cosmetic restoration with a new historically correct cab.
One or two box motors from the Milwaukee Road
A bunchof 19th century engines.
Sorry no narrow gauge.
They are still the largest collection of steamers in North America; with IRM at Union, IL running a close second.
