This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

In August 2012, while driving up to Colorado, as we entered the small town of Dumas on 287 near the top of the panhandle, my wife happened to notice a camouflaged T-Streak tucked up against the side of a building on the west side of 287. On the way back thru, we noticed it was next to a museum called "The Window to the Plains". Google earth now shows it along a walkway behind the building. I haven't been able to find anything on it. Anybody know where it came from?
Interestingly, only 2 blocks north and 2 blocks east of the T-Streak is an F-4 in a small park.

Possibly it (the F-84F) is 52-6553 that was on display at a now defunct museum in Amarillo.

Thanks, Clifford. That certainly makes sense. I bet you are right.
It was a sight I sure didn't expect to see in Dumas.

It is indeed 52-6553.
it arrived in Dumas from Amarillo on 25 June 2009.
