611 move to East End Shops

[NW Mailing List]

Myself and my group, the Friends of the 611,are trying to determine the 611's present condition. So any help is appreciated.

My understanding is that 611 needs only the reinstallation of the firebox bricks to be essentially complete.

Is 611 complete?  (I appreciate that any spare parts for it have probably been sold.)  I hope that they lubed the pistons and valves before moving it, since it looks like they are still attached to the motion.
