Never quite sure of the origin of this one. Photo says Ruby Hill? Conrad says Cortez Mines at Cortez, Nevada. Anyway here it is on display at Las Vegas, in June 1954. Said to be 30-inch gauge.

This engine is currently undergoing restoration in the San Francisco Bay Area, it has been converted to 36" gauge by it's new owners.
