Interesting locomotive. UP added a second sand dome and a larger stack. Donated in 1959 to Boise, Idaho. What kind of condition is she in today?

Good timing, Les. The 2295 is slated to be moved out of the park this week and re-positioned near the depot. I believe at one time there were plans to build a shelter for the engine. Not sure if that is still happening.
