Data from DeGolyer, Volume 73, pp. 208+. Works number was 58040 in September 1924.
Typical logging Mikado for service in southeast Texas, this superheated oil-burner used 10" (254 mm) piston valves to supply the cylinders with steam. Its specs said that, where practicable, "specialties and minor details" were to be the same as the Prairie 108 delivered in 1920 (Locobase 14709).
Based in Keltys, Tex, the 110 operated on the AC's railroad for over 40 years before the closing of the line in 1966 following the sale of the ACLC to Owens-Illinois.
In 1970, O-I's Forest Products Division joined with Lufkin Industries, Inc., Angelina & Neches River Railroad, and the Lufkin Junior Chamber of Commerce in donating the 110 to Lufkin, Texas's Ellen Trout Zoo. Cannibalized to some extent over the next forty years by the Texas State Railroad, the 110 was refurbished in 2010, a project that included the removal of asbestos lagging, sandblasting, a new coat of paint, and new lettering/markings to resemble its original state. Perhaps most important, the zoo erected a metal awning over the locomotive to provide some protection from the sun and from bad weather.
