OK, it took a little looking but I found some info. According to the Westrn Pacific Headlight #26 #501 was bought from the V&T in 1924. It was donated to the Railway & Locomotive Historical Society in 1938 where it was restored to its V&T heritage. It is now on display at the Sacramento Railway Museum in Sacramento,Ca.
BTW- Welcome to the forum
Give me a chance to do some searching. I seem to recall seeing a picture of it not to long ago in a magazine.
