Here is the text of Section 106:

The head of any Federal agency having direct or indirect jurisdiction over a proposed Federal or federally assisted undertaking in any State and the head of any Federal department or independent agency having authority to license any undertaking, prior to the approval of the expenditure of any Federal funds on the undertaking or prior to the issuance of any license, shall take into account the effect of the undertaking on any historic property. The head of the Federal agency shall afford the Council a reasonable opportunity to comment with regard to the undertaking.

Don't see how it applies to this situation; further exactly what is notably historic about any of the locomotives? And, in Oregon, multiple preservation groups have either withdrawn their interest, or have demonstrated a complete lack of interest, in the P&W locomotives. Get your pictures now.
