Perris Museum question
Author: Mr-Beechcroft

This was taken in 1989. Is this the unit now painted SP black?

Yes, that's the SP 1006 when we bought it from National Metal & Steel scrapyard.
Lots of work, but is well worth it.

Actually the locomotive  would move under its own power when we got it, Unfortunately, the brake rigging was so mangled from its time in the scrapyard, we had to couple another locomotive to it in order to stop!  We have come a long way since those days. Many of the brake parts we installed were brand new!
