This unit just showed up as power intended to operate on the Washington and Idaho Rwy.  I'm unsure of it's current running condition, so far.
Ron Bearden and Lee Weldon will appreciate this most.

Was thinking the exact same thing, so I Googled it. C&O 7311 has been hiding in Malden, Indiana, stored outdoors.

And it looks like it is riding on older Alco trucks.
