Thanks Karl. These are great. Unfortunately, our friend SLSF/Scullin 3695 is not "stuffed and mounted" very well. It sits neglected and rusty. At least it has been pulled out of the weeds and poison ivy back in the back (close to the tunnel) where it sat for decades. It's in a good location now, and begs to be given a cosmetic upgrade. As a NMOT member, I've been urging that, but to no avail yet. It's an 0-6-0 (which the museum does not have many of), it's from a famous local St Louis road (SLSF - now gone), and in its later life served a famous St Louis railroad industry (Scullin Steel - now also gone). What better museum piece could they want at the NMOT in St Louis? Ken
