As per request, here are a couple images of Porter 1203 under repair in McEwen. As someone who spent a lot of time dismantling, cleaning, and sand blasting, it's great to see the locomotive going back together so well.....and without the gypsum dust everywhere. Anyway, in the attached image you get a good view of the rebuilt nose and radiator room. The wooden crate contains new cab windows, and the rebuilt main generator can be seen on the right. There is also a narrow gauge ALCO Mikado in the background.
Enjoy, Taylor
