MRSR 3-Truck Heisler #91 - Mt Ranier Scenic RR |
| Description: |
Originally built by the Heisler Locomotive Works in 1930 as Engine No. 102 for the Whitney Engineering Co. of Tacoma, Washington, which was a locomotive dealer at the time. It was sold to Kinzua Pine Mills of Kinzua, Oregon, in 1930. After nearly 40 years of service, it was donated to the Mt Ranier RR & Logging Museum by Tom Murray in the late 1970s. The museum eventually rolled into the Mt Ranier Scenic RR. It was re-numbered by them to #91 in honor of another 3-truck Heisler engine than formerly ran out of Mineral. Unfortunately, this loco has been stored as inoperable. This is a Jim Lockart slide. |
