Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Volume 34, p. 282. Works number was 34342 in February 1910.
Westmoreland had already taken ownership of its #4, an identical Mogul originally sold to Charleston Lumber and later owned by Westmoreland . It obviously was the right size because the 5 was a younger sister in every respect.
After it was sold to Hilton-Dodge, that company went bankrupt in 1916 and the 5 later worked for Savannah Lumber Company.

Wood-burners operating in Louisiana, these narrow-gauge Moguls were purchased by W&LC parent Rapides Lumber Company (they were described by the Supreme Court in 1914 as "identical in interest".). They operated on the railway's 18-mile (29 km) narrow-gauge branch, which ran from the Rapides mill at Woodworth to the spur tracks that wound out of the timber stands themselves.
The 6 was originally delivered to the Rapides, but in 1909, it was "sold" to the W&LC. The 7 joined it four years later. The Rapides bought back the narrow-gauge portion of Woodworth-Valentine narrow-gauge line in April 1916 after the W&LC was granted permission by the Louisiana Railroad Commission to abandon it.
