Right you are, Patrick! The very last I1sa, out of 598. I am a member of the group that moved it from Pittsburgh to Hamburg, NY. It has been there for almost 40 years now. It was the face of the WNYRHS in its day.
I spent a couple summer vacations in the early 90’s painting the boiler with primer and black paint! The engine was shuffled over the years from siding to siding by the host railroad. Now it sits on a sinking track.
It’s supposed to end up at the Buffalo Industrial Heritage museum but it seems to be dying a quiet death in Hamburg. At this point, I would like to see it go to the PRR museum in Strasburg.
I have a number of MTH I1s just because of this engine. Obviously, a personal favorite…

If you send it to the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, it will end up like 6755, 3750, and 520!
