I took this shot many many years ago, early 1980's I believe; when the Delaware & Ulster Railroad operated this Brill. Unfortunately, it is no longer in service and awaits restoration.

It's been in outdoor storage in the yard for several years. I do believe it runs, but needs fuel line work and roof repair. I hope it's returned to operation sometime soon, as I may not be a big internal combustion locomotive fan, but this is one piece I appreciate...
