Things like this sicken me! <br /> <br />In February, the trains.com newswire had a story about metal theives stealing an 0-4-0T from a Ukrainian railway museum. A group of lowlifes came to the museum at night with a big crane and truck and forged permits to move the engine. The locomotive was found the next day cut into pieces in a scrapyard. This wasn't just any old tank engine, though-it was the first locomotive ever built in the Ukraine in 1924! Aparently metal thieves are a huge problem in the Ukraine. <br /> <br />Here's a before and after picture of the engine. <br />[img]http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/39901000/jpg/_39901737_beforeafter_300.jpg[/img]
