This engine is in sad shape. It has been sitting in Arena Park for almost 50 years. There is a hole in the dome(last time I checked) and some rodent is putrefying in the hole. There isn't much corrosion but most of the moveing parts including the firebox and the wheels have been welded so that they can't move. Other moveing parts have been removed includind most of the vavles. The engine can still be saved but some rehab must be done soon.
