What NY museum has the S-class Electrics?

   Awhile back i came across a website with some photos of the s-class electrics. They had been taken at a museum in New York state. I can't find the website. The locos were outside in a wooded area. Anyone know where this is. I'd like to visit. Thanks in advance.

 

If you are looking for a rare train, ask i might surprise you with an asking price!!! A guy asked if i liked fast track, and i replied i used t-rail. He said eww that old stuff you bolt together???? Ignorance must be bliss!

Might this be the one you were thinking of:

There are two other S-1's in existence -- one at St. Louis and one at Illinois Railway Museum:

   The one in Glenmont is the one i saw. They seemed to have several. Are they open to be viewed?
