The third Baldwin logging Mogul that went to this southeastern Virginia railroad (see Locobase 11486 for the second) was a little smaller but had larger cylinders and a bigger grate in a shallower firebox. Terse notes in the specs tell us that the N & B road had "heavy grades" and "rough track".

This lumber road was based in Stoney Creek, Va, a small town due south of Petersburg. Although apparently quite small, this Mogul's proportions suited the skinny gauge line it rolled along. Four years earlier, N&BLC bought an earlier 2-6-0 (company #4) of very similar dimensions. Both weighed about the same on the drivers and in the engine as a whole, had fireboxes with equal lengths and widths, and identical wheelbases.
The 4's two principal differences were slightly more firebox heating surface area in a slightly deeper furnace and 103 small tubes of the same diameter and length that offered 327 sq ft (30.38 sq m) in tube heating surface area. A reasonable estimate for evaporative heating surface area would be 375-380 sq ft (34.84-35.30 sq m).
Newell & Bryant sold the 4 to lumber company J L Fisher, then to and the 6 to R M Bryant, then J L Fisher. J L Fisher sold the 6 in May 1916 to locomotive rebuilder/reseller Birmingham Rail & Locomotive as their stock #1086. BR&L found a buyer in Albemarle Lumber Company of Hertford, NC.
Newell & Bryant sold the 4 to lumber company J L Fisher, then to BR&L in April 1917 as their 1085. Surry Lumber Company of Wakefield, VA bought the ex-4 to run as its #17 on the Surry, Sussex & Southampton railroad.
