Tom, this 906213 is the Imperial Rock that the PRPA sold to a Canadian last year who was unable to accomplish his goal of moving it to a museum site that he was establishing in Canada. His first name is Josh and I was never clear on his last name but it may be Guerney or something similar. I spent some time in January last year working to arrange temporary storage for his car at Mineral, Washington on the property of a willing MRSR but he chose not to pursue that option any further. When the ORHF-related organizations had to vacate their car storage area north of the Brooklyn roundhouse last year I think it was moved to the south end of Brooklyn for some time but I never knew until this post what became of it after that.
