5030's cab still seems relatively intact. The Johnson bar protrudes into the empty window frame, and the wooden cab roof appears surprisingly extant. The boiler jacketing and cab have begun to perforate. |

Only bolts and a thin strip of lumber indicate that footboards used to be here. The air hose appears to have been hacked-off at some point. |
