I used to stop and look at a small abandoned steam shovel along side the road near Lehigh Quarry west of Kankakee IL, then it was gone. At the 2013 HCEA meet in Wilmington IL I believe someone told me it was originally from the Panama Canal project and was being restored. Anyone here know about the history and fate of this shovel?
