[edit] Comments on preservation

I just removed the following from the table of preserved locomotives:

Was never owned by Nashville, Chattanooga & St Louis. Was built new for the Prescott & Arizona Central as their #3. Sold to Sierra Railway #3 in 1897. Presently owned by State of California at Railtown 1897 State Historic Park, at the old Sierra Railway shops in Jamestown, California, part of the California State Railroad Museum.
Signed - Kyle K. Wyatt - Curator of History & Technology, California State Railroad Museum.

I will integrate this into the article text shortly, but wanted to move it out of the table to fix the formatting. Slambo (Speak) 11:52, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
