Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volume 18, p 115. Works number was 13056 in November 1892.
From this Kentucky shortline, the Lu Ceil was sold in 1899 across the Ohio River to the Columbus, Lima & Milwaukee, an Ohio road whose ambitions to reach Milwaukee fell several hundred miles short. In January 1906, the CL & M was merged with the Indiana, Columbus & Eastern Traction, an interurban railway.
