Hello, Sharon, Jerry, and All - A marvelous resource is www.steamlocomotive.com  A search for CRI&P will show six Rock Island steam locomotives, but two are under water!  The Pacifics are at Duncan, OK (905 - see the write-up in the latest REMEMBER THE ROCK), Peoria, IL (886-887 at Wheels-of-Time), and the Illinois Railway Museum, Union, IL (938).  Check out the roster of equipment on the IRM website, www.irm.org .  The 0-4-0 is supposed to move from Jamestown, CA to the Santa Maria Valley Railway Historical Museum in Santa Maria, CA.  Check out www.smvrhm.org  The Warren & Ouchita Valley 4-6-0 #1 (which the Rock Island ran as "Old No. 9") is on display in Black River Falls, WI.  There are steam locomotives - not Rock Island - on the market.  Try www.ozarkmountainrailcar.com for a nifty 2-8-0 in like-new condition for 'ONLY' $415,000  (And refitting to meet new FRA regs should be do-able for another $250,000.)  I'm afraid we're a day late and a dollar short.   PAW
