The GNRERF has merged into the Alco Historical & Technical Society. No. 3028 is now the property of AH&TS. Negotiations are underway to return the engine to Schenectady, NY for restoration and display. No time frame has been established, but this is a major long term goal of the AHT&S. Dave Gould

Attention NH&I Railroad steam fans, I've discovered that 3028 is sitting in storage in a siding south of the depot. Could be that the restoration was hold up.
