MisterV,
The problem of  191 is the boiler.

See http://c-sng-discussion-forum.41377.n7.nabble.com/The-remaining-Locos-td14535.html#a14542

"SP&P 51 / DL&G 191 has an iron lap seam boiler, and would be cheaper to build a new one from scratch than make the original legal to run."

How historic would the engine be after completely replacing the boiler?
