Mr. Lewis,
Thank you for your posts about the MTZ. It helps those of us unable to get
to Minooka to stay up-to-date with their progress.
Do you know which route and railroad the flatcars will take on their way
to Granite City, IL? Any idea when it may take place. If I am able to get
any photos, I will be happy to share them with you.
Thank you.

According to a post on Trainorders.com, the MTZ has been loaded on
flats at the Relco facility, presumably for rail movement to the
Granite City area. For those of you that have the ability to trace,
here is the info:
1) Injun Joe #9903 sits upon CN 639991
2) Becky Thatcher is loaded on CN 668236
3) Huck Finn is loaded on CN 668269
4) Tom Sawyer on XTTX 137369
