Yes it is here! I had hoped to drive my 29 phaeton over to the airport to see the Tri-Motor but it does not look like I will have a chance. I know. My loss.

There was a Ford Trimotor airline operating somewhere in Michigan (I think) a few years ago. They called themselves the world's short airline. The flight was about ten minutes. I don't know if they're still in business or not. I believe they had 3 of them. Also of interest, because of the trimotor's short field capabilities, William Stout, Ford's Designer. tried to go back into production of Trimotors in 1958. He actually produced one or two.
