I was at Union a couple years ago. Engine is in a shed so further
damage will likely be prevented. That being said, I thought it was
in pretty rough condition. It sat for years in Aurora and vandals
had pretty much done a job on it.
As far as access, its in the shed with the NebZephyr - access isn't
a problem.
Good Luck!
