I wonder if the people who conceived those trips would be amazed to learn that the four locomotives they saved exist to this day? I would like to see 2101 returned to Pennsylvania in Reading paint, and 2100 as well. 2124 is probably just fine where she is for the present, and 2102 needs a solid injection of cash. Better still, fix 'em all up and run them once again!
