<p>I don't remember if THA has a Heisler Locomotive in their stable in Samoa? One is for sale in Thomas, West Virginia. D.F.Barnhardt and Associates are brokering the sale and information about it is on their website at <a href="http://www.trains-trams-trolleys.com">www.trains-trams-trolleys.com</a>, click on "Equipment", then on "Locomotives" Reference #2015. </p>

<p>Some museums set up a separate trust to handle the purchase and restoration of a major project like this one so that it doesn't compete with the general museum fundraising efforts. </p>

General question.<div><br></br></div>
<div> I went to Roots last Octoberish and was very disappointed that I didn't get to see NWP 13. The gal at the front desk of the museum said that unless someone specifically was there to give a tour I was SOL and the building was locked up tight. She also mentioned the work shop area was strictly off limits. Of course she said that AFTER my wife and I paid our toll, grrr.

<div> I went to Roots last Octoberish and was very disappointed that I didn't get to see NWP 13. The gal at the front desk of the museum said that unless someone specifically was there to give a tour I was SOL and the building was locked up tight. She also mentioned the work shop area was strictly off limits. Of course she said that AFTER my wife and I paid our toll, grrr. I of course went out to the shop area there anyway and checked out the equipment since I drove about 200+ miles and know how not to get myself in trouble. My question for those involved is, are there specific days that people are there to give tours of NWP 13? I would love to actually meet up with someone who knows the equipment as the front desk gal seemed more like a volunteer for the county or something. My second question is, inside the museum part they were showing a video of the NWP. Does anybody know if this is the Catenary Productions video currently offered by the NWPRRHS? If not, has anybody seen it and can recommend it?</div>
