It has been announced on a couple of other forums that the Georgetown Loop in CO will swap their little 2-6-2 number 12 to Midwest Central for former Westside Lbr. Co. 3T Shay 9. There are other particulars of this agreement that I am omitting here, but the big deal is that Midwest Central gets a rod engine that is sized pretty well for their operation while Georgetown Loop gets a Shay again. What I find encouraging is that the 9 is considerably larger and more powerful than Shays 12 & 14, which had been used there before.
Anyway, as others have pointed out, should be a good deal all around. I don't think title changes here, it's a long-term swap if I'm correct.
