Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Vol 62, p. 329. Works number was 51822 in May 1919.
Very small wood-burning logging Prairie suitable for the light (30 lb/yard, 15 kg/metre) rail of a South Carolina lumber company's tram line. The small scale is indicated by its total length of 15 miles (24.1 km).
The 4 would later work for the Beaufort County Lumber Company in North Carolina.

This Washington State logging company had its headquarters in Wahkiakum County. Its profile included maximum grades of 4% (partially compensated for curves) and average grades of 1 1/2-2%. Curves measured as tight as 25 degrees (207 foot/63 metre radii), and rails weighed 56 lb/yard.
Other than the use of oil fuel, this engine was typical of a medium-sized logging Prairie.
