Marysville & Northern 2-8-2 "Mikado" Locomotives in the USA


Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media

Class 1 (Locobase 13681)

Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Volume 35, p. 283. Works number was 34563 in April 1910.

This Washington State logging road of Bryant, Wash was closed and dismantled by 1927 and the Carlisle & Northern of Onalaska, Wash bought the 1 and renumbered 901. Later the Newaukum Valley of Napavine, Wash bought the 901, operated it, and sold it in 1942 to Valley & Siletz, which renumbered it 57 in Hoskins, Ore and ran it until it was scrapped in December 1955.
