Here is B&A's X196 Dynamometer Car in 2003. It is located next to Ohio Street in Bangor. It was purchased some time ago by Country Music legend Dick Curliss. In later years it saw a lack of maintainence, and according to a neighbor, had bad roof leaks. More recently it and the other cars were purchased and a little work to stabilize them is apparent. Compared to the photo from 1936, it obvious that it was extensively rebuilt somewhere along the way, with new steel siding, windows replaced, and the cupola removed.
