I understand a sister locomotive of 844, number 838, is stored and being used for parts. What parts have been removed? What shape is this locomotive in? Are these locomotives identical?

Lots of things, including appliances, side rods, and even some parts of the boiler were cut out many years ago.
What shape is this locomotive in?
Bordering on scrap.
Are these locomotives identical?
Basically yes, except #838 was never up-graded with the Worthington Type S Feedwater System. She still has the Sellers exhaust steam injector system.
