Reply to "Any updates or progress on PRR 1361?"

My guess is that the LIRR's G5s Nos 35 & 39 may be running before K4 No. 1361. So it is possible that some PRR mainline steam engines will run in this century. Maybe railroad owner Warren Buffet can divert some of the millions he gives annually to charity to finish the restoration of these 3 PRR engines.

Well that would be nice, but don't hold your breath.

Its tough for an update when nobody is speaking up for its restoration.  With my experience with government funds and government projects... its assessed every quarter....

The Atloona Museum has done a great job at restoring the shop and the interior displays at its location, however the caboose at the rear entrance is a real mess inside... not even cleaned out. And most of the passenger cars lay out side rotting away.

I think the rolling stock , passenger cars, K4, GG1 and other items will be done at a later time... problem is ... it maybe real later...
