Yes. Look like that it will go there. Thats an uprise haha from 5300ft moderate climate to 8000ft subarctic climate. I guess they will store it outside for the foreseeable future. Will see how much winters the Shay can withstand the elements. Anyone konow if they purchased it or they have a storage and display agreement with the actual owner. quote their last sentence on their home page: http://moffatrailroadmuseum.org/index.html """ We are currently in need of a laptop for the museum and are looking for someone who can donate one. """ Did not sound to me like an organization who can acquire, move, restore, maintain and display a several 100k$ piece in museum-like-indoor condition? What are your thoughts? |
