Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Volume 53, pp. 320. See also a brief account of the TVRR at [] . Works number was 43570 in June 1916.
Baldwin produced two 3-foot gauge locomotives for the TVRR; see Locobase 14340 for the 4-6-0. Both were rated as "passenger & freight" engines. Although both had the same driver diameters and virtually the same tube lengths, this Eight-wheeler used a slightly small grate to burn coal in a larger firebox.
Like the 2 shown in Locobase 14340, this narrow-gauge Eight-wheeler remained with the TVRR throughout its career and was scrapped once this Pennsylvania road closed in 1934.
