Another "new" 4-4-0 that's coming on line this year is actually a Baldwin from 1897, originally built for the Detroit & Lima Northern.  She's been going through a very extensive overhaul, and will be running at the Henry Ford Museum on the demonstration railroad there.

I'm normally a fan of big, superpower locomotives, but there's no denying the grace that is so inherent in the classic 4-4-0. . .
