I am aware of two NW3s that still exist, one stuffed and mounted in Montana, and the other active at A. E. Staley, in PA.

What about NW5s? There is Mass Central 2100. I think I recall a railroad in Colorado owning three or four of these, maybe the Denver and Rock Island. Is anyone aware of whether these units are still around? What about others?

Thanks,

I believe there is an ex-GN NW5 floating around superior, WI.

I think there is also an NW-5 in Portland OR in primer grey paint Ex-GN and part of the NHRS collection. I am not certain though.
