I think B&M 1732 can still be found in preservation with a later B&M blue scheme at RR museum of NE. (Perhaps needing new paint and quite surely awaiting major primer mover repair or swap)
As for ST72 (aka 1741)... I believe the club is looking to do the original blue, black and white McGinnis scheme. Although Mass Central RR uses this scheme, I think 1741 would be the first to go all the way with it including the B&M logo and actual historically correct delivery paint scheme.
It will be interesting to see what the next gen of preservation looks like. Although Guilford only roamed Crawford Notch for a very brief time, maybe it would give them an excuse to acquire a GP40 with a Big G on the side of it??? MEC345 appears to be running well, and appears to have dynamics.
