This tourist road is reported to have a two truck Heisler in operation.....I was surprised by the Wikipedia list of quite a few surviving Heislers.
One that I don't THINK is on the list was a small one that I understand is privately owned and was stored at Connersville, Ind. on the
Whitewater Valley RR. That small one at Connersville I would love to have a three rail model of. Wonder if it is still there and the history
behind it? But what about the one in Freeport? Anybody seen it, photographed it, ridden behind it? Another small Heisler I saw a photo
of, in a magazine I'd have to hunt, was also privately owned and looked like it was in a barn or a shed, and not very large at all. I suspect it is not on that Wikipedia list, either. With Lionel's 0-8-0, except for the K-Line Shay I think they reproduced, they might be
the most likely potential source for a small Heisler in a set similar to the ones the O-8-0's came in.
