The thread on a mystery switcher reminded me we have a mystery picture we are trying to identify. See our Mystery Photos at tmny.org/tmnyarch.html. There is a little Davenport with markings O&MRR 142. Can anyone identify the system, date, location, etc for it? Trolley Museum of New York Archives page n2xjk@ulster.net |

The Ohio & Morenci Railroad operated from 1933 to 1954. The O&M took over freight operations from the Toledo & Western Railway when that railroad ceased operation as an interurban line. The railroad ran between Sylvania, Ohio, and Morenci , Michigan. The O&M used small locomotives such as gas mechanicals ,and center cabs like the #142 I don't have any history on the #142 ,or a clue where the photo was taken. B. Allan cvsrkahuna@aol.com |

Thanks. That is still helpful. This seems to be the only photo we have of the O&MRR. Nothing with Toledo in the name either. If you looked at the database that is linked to the page, you will see the bulk of our photographic collection is NY, NJ and Eastern PA. Trolley Museum of New York Archives page n2xjk@ulster.net |
