Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Vol 71, pp. 393+. Works numbers were 56323 in March 1923.
Somewhat larger than usual oil-burning Prairie saddle-tank logging engine that served the SFLC and successor Weyerhaeuser Timber until it was sold in 1948 to Canadian Forest Products as their #112. It remained in service into the 1960s before being put on display at Beaver Cove, British Columbia.
