A bridge to the past

[mxdata]

Has anybody out in the Michigan area ever come across any identifiable remains of the DD35 that was rumored to have been sold to a farmer who wanted to use the underframe as a farm bridge?

I hope somebody knows since (I believe) all the DD35As and DD35Bs were scrapped.

If the DD35 frame still exists it was probably sold as a underframe only and might have been cut shorter to fit the location, so it could be very difficult to recognize it today. I heard about this many years ago from a person in the scrap business and wondered if anybody has ever seen it.

I believe that there was also an Erie Lackawanna SDP45 frame, engine, and hood sold to a scrap yard in Connecticut as a power pod for an auto shredder. I don't know if they ever got it installed or how much of the locomotive structure was retained in the application.
