Data from Park Benjamin (Ed), Appleton's Cyclopedia of Applied Mechanics (New York: D Appleton & Company, 1884), p. 341. Boiler pressure is an estimate.
While no builder is identified as the manufacturer (and no railroad as its customer) of this locomotive, its size marks it as a relatively large engine of the Forney type. But see Locobase 16373 for a very close relative bought by the Sebasticook & Moosehead in 1892.
