Anyone here know anything about an 0-4-0T locomotive located somewhere in Oregon, possibly being restored?
It is an Alco (Cooke) built in 1917 with a saddle tank across the boiler. It was owned by the Army, Greenville Sand and Gravel Company, and Sierra Railroad (formerly Yolo Short Line, in that order. I was informed by the previous owners that it was sold to someone in Oregon for restoration in 2000. The owners have no record of exactly who purchased it.
31 inch drivers
160 lb operating pressure
weighs about 26 tons
# 1 on boiler plate
