I was met by a very friendly guy ( I forget his name - I'm old and silly. I was given the tour! I met a couple more employees who were very welcoming.

A 2-4-0?  That's an unusual wheel arrangement.    (It might be a 2-6-0, could there be a 3rd driver underneath where the cab goes?)

That's something you don't see very often, a steam locomotive being rebuilt.

Cool pictures, thanks for sharing
