Sad to see this treasure leave Wisconsin but fully understand the reasons behind its departure. Happy to see it going where it and its owner will be appreciated.

Looks like a good engine for the Cochran Extension, hauling all those ample turistas up into the hills.

Mid Continent's loss is Oregon Coast's gain.

Those low drivers make it look like a "Chomper in the grass".

So the rumors of her going to Florida were BS, like I figured.

The article said they looked into places all over the country to run her, so the rumors may have been true but the owner decided on OCSR.

Skip Lichter traveled to many places throughout the country at his own expense and gave fair consideration before making his decision.

Never work, no way that thing will keep up the 60 mph operating speed! Damn, that's a nice little piece, I was
all oohs and ahhs over D&NE 28, this is right up that alley, great to see it come West!
