<p>I was recently reading about the New York Central's "Mohawk" #2933, now on display in St. Louis.</p> <p>According to museum reports, after the locomotive was retired, it was saved from the torch by a group of employees who somehow "Hid" the locomotive in a switching yard for 3(?) years, until the museum acquired it.</p> <p>My question is how did they manage to keep such a large locomotive hidden from railroad officials? Obviously, it would have dwarfed surrounding rolling stock. What could have been done to disguise it? </p>
