After being relocated to the Simcoe County Museum in 2008 to allow for road reconstruction in Barrie, 1531 has had its asbestos removed. Despite the appearance, it is probably in better hands here at the museum.

    I would hope they have kept all the parts in storage, including the stack, and plan to put the engine back together and on display someday.

    When it was first relocated, the stack was back on after being removed for the move. A couple of years ago all of the piping underneath had been labelled, so someone is keeping track of everything.
