Engine is not undergoing restoration. In fact they have no current plans for the engine at this time. The engine was bought by the same man who went to jail for stealing the money from the treasury of the railroad, and he was the only guy who really wanted the engine. The engine is in really terrible shape, and even some of the people down there are questioning why it was bought.

I am aware that the passenger cars have been moved(sold?) to the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum for use on the Hiawassee River trips.

Restoration of this locomotive has been brought to a halt and is now for sale by the common carrier part of the Hardin Southern Railroad. The Hardin Southerns partnership with the Mid-South group is reported to be no more and operation of the tourist train has also been stopped.

The #4 is leased to the non-profit Mid-South Rail Heritage Foundation, Inc., which is the operator of the Hardin Southern Railroad. The locomotive is undergoing a slow restoration as resources permit.
