<p>[quote user="Leo_Ames"]</p> <p>That's not correct, it's well documented what happened when the end came. Take what Steve Lee, the head of Union Pacific's program at the time, wrote about it.</p> <p><a href="http://www.brucebharper.info/nwrwy/1218.html">http://www.brucebharper.info/nwrwy/1218.html</a></p> <p>Just ignore the nonsense where he essentially claims that Norfolk Southern did us a generous favor by not just scrapping her and had no right to be displeased in the slightest that she wasn't left complete. </p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p> Well, we ARE lucky 1218 wasn't scrapped altogether. With the mention of so much stuff being scraped, and the boiler an empty shell, if 1218 were restored, and all of the missing parts remade, how much of 1218 would still actually be original? </p>
