Split into its own topic to keep things in Czech...

Unless we are told otherwise, we assume the owner wishes to remain anonymous. We also do not know what work ML&M intends to do on the locomotive.

That said, this locomotive was listed For Sale on "Discover Live Steam" last year:

Czallenge accepted...

The WW&F intends to deliver the "Czech Czooch" to ML&M by RPO... so the Czech is in the mail.

Word has it that a similar locomotive will be coming for additional work... so there will be a Czech mate.

If it is to be restored to operation, the boiler will need an ultra-sound Czech.

Remember, ML&M is private property... do not come by just to Czech it out.

While we don't know for sure, rumor has it that the locomotive's restoration is being underwritten by a famous football coach... Bill Beliczech.
