<p>[quote user="cascadenorthernrr"]</p> <p>So step one would be see if the owner would consider selling, two find out what needs to be abated, three find a company to do the lifting, four find a form of transportation (rail, barge, truck), five find a shop to do the restoration work, six get final destination to be suitable and accessible by rail, seven figure out financial budget, eight begin the process of buying.</p> <div style="clear:both;"> </div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Step ___ Document the as found condition of the locomotives including photographs and measurements of as installed equipment. </p> <p>Step 2.1 Obtain the necessary permits from the local governments to do the abatement work.</p> <p>Step 2.2 Hire contractor to do abatement and dispose of the hazardous material.</p> <p>(you will not likely turn a wheel until this is done)</p> <p>Step 7 is actually step 1. Step 2, 3, 4, 5 will not even talk to you beyond maybe a quote, which you will likely have to pay for, without the money or financial plan to raise the money.</p>
