Great shot, Rob! I knew the “Empress” had been preserved, but it was very cool to see a recent photograph. Thanks for sharing, Sir!

Was the engine taken out for parts? It will probably easier to find traction motors for the 9171 then it will be to find a engine for the 8921 either way looks like they have done a great job preserving the 8921.
