The photograph of #2501 apparently didn't include mention that it is now preserved by the Oregon Electric Railway Historical Society at their site in Brooks, Ore., north of Salem.
The OERHS site, on the grounds of Antique Powerland just to the west of Interstate 5, includes a stretch of wired track over which they run some of their trolleys during events there.
The site also includes an extensive live steamer operation, the Willow Creek RR.
A good time to sample the OERHS and the Willow Creek RR is during the Great Oregon Steam Up, an event which is usually held the last weekend in July and the first weekend in August.
