According to Hanoi Department of Culture and Sports, the locomotive would be a suitable exhibit at the Hanoi Museum and the department was working with the Vietnam Railways about this.

Vietnam Railways have agreed to give the locomotive to the museum. However, the object is a state-owned asset, so the handover needs the Ministry of Transport’s permission.
