WP #334 is stored inside Carbarn #2 at Western Railway Museum away from the public because of hazmat concerns. It is under cover and protected from any further weather damage. It was last used in regular service in 1952. It was used on excursions in 1956 and 1957. It was on display in the museum parking lot for many years. It was donated to the Western Railway Museum in 1967 when its owners had no place to keep it and could not care for it.

WP #94 is on public display in Carbarn #3. It is in immaculate condition although mechanically it is totally worn out. It has been stored inside ever since it retired from WP. Paint has been touched up recently and it looks as if it just came out of the shop. The bell, whistle and builders plates are locked up for safekeeping separately but otherwise it is completely intact.

Carbarn #3 is open for guided tours every Saturday and Sunday at 1:15 PM.
