The engine was actually moved to Hooper, Nebraska in I think 2011, in October 21 it was acquired by the Sioux City Railroad Museum in Sioux City, Iowa. The museum may have plans too cosmetically restore the engine, and eventually restore to operation someday.

Happy 100th birthday FL & AL 18 (I believe this maybe the correct date it was built)
