Victor Butts General Great shot. I hope they keep it in the deathstar ols paint. 3/14/2010 3:36:27 PM
Alex Wood General It will likely stay in IC paint for a while, however there is a lot of talk about GM&O or EMD Demonstrator. This engine will be used to haul the storage cars at the museum once restored. 3/15/2010 3:34:39 PM
Lewis Marien General As of March 27, IC 6071 made it to Monticello. 3/29/2010 12:04:23 PM
Tyler Bundy General Word on the street is that it is in decent mechanical condition, though it is missing some important parts. The IC robbed all of the traction motors. I would not be surprised if those were shop trucks that it rides on in the photo, as there is some evidence of a minor derailment on the underside of the locomotive. 4/19/2010 2:13:46 PM
