yes that being 4449 and 4460 but still SP could've saved other well liked engines that should've made it with them since to me SP made (in my view) among the greatest "american" engines that ever ran the rails.
Sure I'd like to see non survived american engines be reborn (not as replica's though) since Tornado was not a replica of the LNER A1's and was in fact the 50th built since the original 49's of the class didn't make it.

The first (28) 4-8-2 Mountains on the Southern Pacific were built by ALCO and were delivered during 1923 and 1924.Β These locomotives were designated Class Mt1 and assigned road numbers 4300 through 4327.Β Later, in 1924 another (6) Mt1βs were delivered from ALCO. These (6) numbered 4385 through 4390 were designated Class Mt-2 and were similar to the Class Mt1s, The Sacramento General Shops of the Southern Pacific built (49) more Mt2βs between 1925 and 1930. Later these locomotives were reclassified as Class Mt2 β Mt5.
