Sale section
editConsidering the sale to the Friends group, the section titled Sale ("In mid-Jan 2010, the engine was found...") should either be removed since the sale is mentioned earlier in the article, or the new sale information should be moved here. n2xjk (talk) 15:25, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
Scope
editI found out that this article also focuses on the Friends of the 261 organization (listing every railcar they own, etc.). I don't want that concentration in the article; the article must always describe the locomotive, not also its owner. Ctempire (talk) 16:10, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
