Original two foot boiler

Saw this on the NERAIL list. It is apparently the boiler from one of the two original two foot gauge locomotives in the US. They were first used on the Billerica & Bedford in Massachusetts, then migrated to the Sandy River in Maine after the B&B closed.

How interesting. Hopefully someone from the SR&RL group (or anyone in the know) can post a bit more about this find...

Hi Gents,

The boiler is reportedly from one of the original B&B Hinckleys. I don't recall which one, but the information has been reported in both the SR&RL and Friends of Bedford Depot Park newsletters.

Best Regards,
Glenn
