Heres a question.....Are there any 44 tonners still operating in New England? I dont think the C&C still is. How about anyone else?

Danbury Railway Museum (Danbury CT) has 2, with 1 of them operational, IIRC.
Conway Scenic (N. Conway NH) had 2... #15 I think went to Canada. #380 is ex-New Hampshire Central and I believe is still on CSRR property, though not in use.
