Viewing Album:  SRM Loco Lift Day
 
By:Nick Henderson
Dates:2/1/2011 - 2/1/2011
Album Info:After the arrival of ex-L&N ALCO S4m #2326 on a flatcar, the museum rented 2 mobile cranes to lift it and put it on museum rails. Also while the cranes were on site they were utilized to lift/turn 2 more pieces of equipment. Georgia Power 0-6-0T #97 had its frame and running gear turned around, and NCR 0-4-0F was taken off a bulkhead flat it had sat on for 12 years and placed back on rail.
