Reply to "Burlington streamlined Aeolus 4-6-4"

I attended the BRHS 2016 Fall meeting in LaCrosse WI in OCT-2016.     

At the swap meet, the 4000 Foundation had a HUGE 2-rail model of the #4000 Alice for sale for only $100.00  !!!  

So naturally, I scooped on it !!!

However to my dismay, they explained that I did not actually buy the locomotive.  

I did buy a lifetime membership in the 4000 Foundation.  

I did receive an Aeolus mesh cap & a white tee-shirt with the red, white, & black Aeolus logo.  

Please see my photos below of the Aeolus cap & tee-shirt.

After viewing, climbing on, & photographing Alice, I realized that she would not fit into my Toyota Sienna minivan without severe overhang.  

So it is good that I actually did not buy Alice !!!  

Even if I had gotten her home, she would would not have fit in my basement.   

Enjoy !!!
