Born in May 1944 the AT&SF 2926 ran a million miles in the American Southwest before being retired in an Albuquerque City park in 1953. Rescued from that park in 2000 the giant steam locomotive is being restored to operation by the all volunteer crew of the New Mexico Steam Locomotive and Railroad Historical Society. |

On site restoration work on the AT&SF 2926 is proceeding in accordance with the New Mexico Governor's announcement of the Public Health Order rules that went into effect as of Wednesday, December 2, 2020. Bernalillo County has now been upgraded to "YELLOW" status. The crew continues to abide by Covid Safe Practice standards as they work with a limit of 25% indoor occupancy. Visitors are still not allowed. |

Our Tool Car, NMSX 3939, arrived on-site 5/05/2020 and we've already started remodeling it ! However, we still need a bit more funds to finish this job. The Tool Car will no doubt be a critical item needed to support AT&SF 2926 while its on the road, so please consider a generous donation today. |
