Sources estimate Grant's works number as 1096.
Known as "Old Betsy." That name changed when the 1 was sold to the Fort Erie Ferry Railway in 1894. Renamed "Old Eunice", the engine was scrapped in 1900.
Works number was 4254 in 1894.
Originally bought by the Dominion Construction Company. Acquired by Toronto, Hamilton & Buffalo in 1894 as its very first engine, the 1 went to work on the Hamilton-Welland run and later to the Smith-Dunnviille route.
Maple Leaf Milling bought the 1 to serve its logging operations and ran it until 1927 when it was dumped in a bog.
Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volume 20, p. 53. Baldwin works numbers 14515-14517 in October 1895.
Typical Eight-wheeler passenger engines of the era. The class operated for ove 20 years on the TH&B until they were sold in 1917 to the Evansville & Indianapolis as their 3-5. The E&I became the Evansville, Indianapolis & Terre Haute.in June 1920. Apparently the three 4-4-0s were at the end of their useful days as all of them were scrapped in August 1921.
