Comments

This locomotive was operated by Seattle City Light near the Skagit River until 1954, at which point it was donated to be displayed in a park.  It was then operated by the Skagit River Railway for a number of years before the excursion railway went under and the locomotive was moved back to Newhalem.  The tracks that brought this engine to its location have long been pulled, and a rail trail now stands in the right of way.
