Data from Roy V Wright (Ed.) 1912 Locomotive Cyclopedia of American Practice, Sixth Edition (New York: Simmons-Boardman Publishing Company, 1912), p. 153. Works numbers were 4547-4548 in April 1910.
Located in Calhoun County, Ill, the CC&B exploited a coal outcropping through a drift mine. Originally incorporated before 1882 as the Thomas Coal Company, the corporate name of CC&B only applied between 1907 and 1911.
To take men in and haul coal out, they needed a low-profile mine locomotive. Locobase hasn't determined the track gauge.
