Does anyone have any information on the W.T. Smith Lumber Co. #7 2-6-0 that is/was at Kershaw Manufacturing in Montgomery, AL.? I thought it was being restored, but I have not heard anything on it in years.

No information less than a decade old. At that time restoration efforts were done in small fits and starts. It may still be creeping along..... hope so. She's a nice little thing for a light and slow operation. There was an idea floating around about an attraction making use of the W of A shops complex and old industrial sites nearby along an unused line that would have made good use of her.
