Mhmm!! It's sad though, I really wish they could be restored, but, they are full of asbestos and would need some power conversion car behind them.

It would take millions to just remove the asbestos and Millions more to restore them to look good at least.

the only big boy in that area is at Steam Town. The Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania only deals with PRR equipment.
