Another steam engine in danger.

I'm sure that alot of the members on this forum already know the nickel plate road 2-8-2 587 in Noblesville, Indiana , the bad news is that the Indiana transportation museum got an eviction notice and 2-8-2 Mikado Steam engine which was built in August 1918 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania needs to be moved out of the shop by the 12th of July and this includes other pieces of equipment they own in the collection , the KCS 503 case was bad enough, but this is worse and to add further insult to injury, the museum who was given that notice after 52 years of their existence, has a lawsuit filed against the officials, this latest incident is probably one of the worst I have just read as a fan of steam engines.
