Ownership notes: P&R (Reading Co) never gave up title to thje locomotive, so its time at the Franklin Institute was a loan. Conrail apparently inherited title and has retained ownership the entire time. As announced 08/11/2023, locomotive is being moved to Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania. Ownership transfer was not discussed.
