Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volumes 34, p. 295. See also the Tap-Line Case summary at [] . (Thanks to Chris Hohl for his 28 February 2015 email giving the tender's fuel capacity.) Works numbers were 34465, 34555 in April 1910; 35574 in November; and 36571 in May 1911.
This lumber company was based in Doucette, Texas and clearly had some money - at least enough to buy four small wood-burning Prairies. The relatively light tenders held only 2 1/4 cords of wood.
They logged about 38,500 acres of timber in Tyler County. The 6 worked for the Thompson & Tucker Lumber Company. 11 and 12 were eventually sold to the Rock Creek Lumber Company of Trinity, Texas, which was bought out by Texas Long-Leaf Lumber Company.
Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Vol 52, pp. 340. (Thanks to Chris Hohl for his 22 February 2015 email supplying the tender's fuel capacity.) Works number was 42615 in October 1915.
When this Texas timber company came back to Baldwin for another locomotive, they opted for a larger engine than the design they'd stocked up with in 1910-1911 (Locobase 13642). It too was a wood-burner and its tender held 3 1/2 cords of wood.
In its first couple of years of service, the 100 served several lumber companies in the area, starting with Rock Creek Lumber of New Willard, then its parent Texas Long Leaf Lumber. Texas Long Leaf's Burton Swartz Supply sold the 100 to Carbur Logging.
