breezinup posted:Other steam engines in U.P's Cheyenne roundhouse keeping 3985 company include No. 838 (another Northern, some parts of which have been used on 844), and No. 5511.
I can understand keeping the 838 as a parts donor, but I can't help but wonder what the rational was for keeping the 5511? It certainly would be too slow for any kind of excursion service.
