There are two surviving AT&SF 2-8-2 "Mikado" type locomotives. These two locomotives (numbers 3167 and 4076) were lost in a flood in 1952 and are now sunk in the Kaw River in Topeka, KS.

2022年6月29日 · I’ll be here in Topeka a week from now to try and find the remnants of a lost steam locomotive, ATSF 4076, which was lost during a major flood back in 1951.
