I think 2613 was borrowed by the L&N for a farewell to Steam excursion in KY after all of their steam had been retired.Afterwards some railfans from KY traveled to Chicago to the IC HQ to see if they would donate it but they were only willing to sell it for the whopping sum of $5000 which was money they did not have. It ended up going to scrap where is my checkbook?
