Loco looks as if it was recently repainted. Cars also look repainted.

Engine remains on site at El Paso connection however it has greatly deteriorated. Cab & caboose are particularly bad. Engine and cars are still salvageable.

This 4-4-0 Crown is on static display at the El Paso Connection visable from I-10. Worth a stop to see this classic. I was told there is 1.5 miles of track and the train, cars and caboose for sale for $500,000. Come on POWER BALL

It appears the engine has been moved to the El Paso Connection at 14301 West Gateway Boulevard, El Paso.

That site says that the engine is no longer available! What happened to the engine? Was it sold?

The owner of the locomotive is selling it, the three train cars, and "I Think" a railroad with 3/4 mile trackage for $300,000. I hope this information will help anyone who is interested.

This locomotive is from the defunct (1983) Legend City Amusement Park, is stored in El Paso and is for sale. Rumored to be in reasonable condition after 24 years of storage.
