Handsome Chinese built QJ class 2-10-2 "Santa Fe" type rests between jobs at the 2011 Trainfest at Rock Island. Unfortunately this locomotive and its sister were put in storage in October 2021 at the expiration of their 15 year FRA inspection cycle. Hopefully money will be found to get at least one of the pair inspected and put back on the mainline.
