Not sure Peter. . .no signs were up. Or it was too damn cold to look for them! The bomb bay doors are open. . .the engines are removed. . .and what you saw in the picture is all that you get.

A shame to see her like that. B1 is a beautiful plane

It looks like a B-1B. I believe they mothballed about a third of the fleet awhile back. Only 4 B-1As were built. One crashed and one never flew and was used as aground test bed. One is at Wright-Pat and the other in another museum. The first photo is a Douglas C-124 Globemaster II.
