  1. Actually Dwight was in a worse physical state because the Americans had grit blasted the loco, then filled up the hundreds of holes made and finally painted the loco a weird shade of green. The motion had all been painted as well (I think). DOC was still carrying its 1967 paint job until 2012 which stood the test of time pretty well. However, Dwight is in better condition mechanically.
