Data from Negative 8871, Southern Methodist University, Central University Libraries, DeGolyer Library collection of digitized Baldwin images, retrieved 26 October 2010 from [] . See also DeGolyer Baldwin Specifications, Vol 71, pp. 269. Works number was 56767 in July 1923.
One of the smaller logging Prairies to run on the standard gauge. This oil-burner's mid-20s building date shows that certain applications--such as logging--resisted motor trucks more easily than others. It was specified to be easily convertible to burning coal fuel.
At some later date, ASJ sold the 9 to Mansfield Hardwood Lumber Company of Winnifield, La.
