Data from PM 3 1929 Locomotive Diagrams supplied in May 2005 by Allen Stanley from his extensive Rail Data Exchange. Roster information from the CLC list compiled by Connelly and supplied by Allen Stanley.
Works numbers for the Kingston Brothers Locomotive Works (predecessor of the CLC) ran 400-402. In 1902, the LE & DR (itself an 1891 reorganization of the Lake Erie, Essex & Detroit River Railway) agreed to be leased for 21 years by the Canadian arm of the Pere Marquette. A year later, the railway was in fact absorbed into the PM.
NB: Diagram shows only tube heating surface, not total.
