I'd love to have it as a collectors piece if only I had the room-great find and thanks for the photos Dan!

Ossining guys....what's the story behind this engine? When was it retired?

Even if it's not saved as an antique, if it's not being actively used, I am sure there is some poor rural department somewhere in the US that would LOVE to have an engine like this...

Tarrytown had an old 1980 Hahn similar to this one that was donated to a dept in Tennessee.

That engine was retired in 1999 when they bought the seagrave that they have now.
