[CBQ] Winton Engines

[ANDREW KOETZ <andrewkoetz@gmail.com>]

Just thinking out loud here. What would it cost to get one of those Winton engines re-built, or both of them possibly? Or hasn't the Cali State RR Museum ever thought about that.

Preston Cook, the ranking expert on Winton has an excellent note on the Winton engines at: 

http://utahrails.net/loconotes/pcook-winton.php. It was he who personally warned me of the absence of any operable engines from which to record. A minor addendum to his note is that there are two other existing 201 Winton engines, the 12 cylinder pair removed from the A unit of the first CITY OF SAN FRANCISCO E-2 A-B-B set. They reside in the collections of the California State Railroad Museum.
