Post subject:  Vulcan Switcher at Electric City Trolley Museum

Does anybody know who was the original owner and the Vulcan serial/construction number of the Vulcan Iron Works gas-mechanical switcher currently residing at the Electric City Trolley Museum in Scranton? It's an 0-4-0 siderod, 12-15 tons, built in 1927, but beyond that, I know nothing more. I believe it was most recently owned by Dr. Harold Cox, the trolley historian, prior to donation to ECTM, and used by Ed Blossom as the Dushore Car Works switcher in the 1970s. Any info on the engine's earlier history is invited and appreciated.
