If there ever was a locomotive that should have been saved this was one of them. As the first roller bearing equipped locomotive the "Four Aces" led the way to the development of the "Super Locomotives". Being a relatively small 4-8-4 she would have made a practical excursion engine. Along with NYC Hudsons, sadly, she is only a memory.
