The story of T3 n ° 3, which this locomotive is numbered in preservation, however, includes further detail. In the spring of 2000, it was severely damaged by the flood that hit Turin, and in this case the Borgo Dora district, where the Officine di Porta are located. It therefore had to undergo a new complex repair of the entire lower part of the machine (running gear, distribution, cylinders), damaged by the mud of the Dora Riparia, before being put back into service, in 2002, for the towing of historical-reminiscent trains. It is believed that its sister, H&S 8584 is the one on loan to Altavilla ?

I have a photograph taken circa 1968 of what looks like one of these 0-6-0 tank locos working, I think that I took it in Genoa. How can I submit this photo to you for verification?
