well, they were rebuilt recently and DH didn't have any use for them and some other alcos anymore. No idea on the sold or lease.... Lease to sell?

the pa story had an amazing story. we got to keep two of them thanks to DH who send them to Morrison Knudsen and also to Doyle, the group in Texas and the Mexican museum and the group in Brazil.
