The highest numbered Centenial was 6946,which is in the museum at Portola.I don't know which one was in Dallas,but the number was below 6946.

If thebreeze05 is referring to T&P Mountain 909, this was actually never an T&P locomotive, it was a NYC Mohawk dressed up in T&P paint. I believe it was NYC #3001 and now is sitting in Elkhart , Indiana at the NYC museum
