The locomotive became the property of the Railroad Museum of PA 12/1979 and it has retained ownership since that time. It leased it to the Strasburg for a period of time, then became inoperable and the lease was terminated. She was never "Sold" to anyone after 1979.

Here is a photo of her upon her arrival at Strasburg
