109, no date, but likely Bevier, Missouri: http://abpr2.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi? ... b+s109.jpg 111, 1/5/38 Bevier: http://abpr2.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi? ... b+s111.jpg 112, 10/4/58, Bevier: http://abpr2.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi? ... b+s112.jpg The 109 is at IRM after years in Vermont at Steamtown. The 111 was scrapped in the early 1960s, if I recall, after they leased the CB&Q 2-8-2s. The 112 sits rusting and rotting across from the post office in Bevier. |

Bob, CB&Q O1a 4955 (which was one of two locomotives used on the first "modern" era fantrip on the "Q" in 1955) worked the B&S for awhile. 4943 and 4963 were down there also with 4963 surviving a sale to Dick Jensen and now residing at IRM along with one of the 2-6-0s. Don C. |

Am I wrong in thinking that the 111 was a twin sister to number 112? Also, wasn't there another Mogul in the mix? I think perhaps a M&StL engine? Since the engines seem to be numbered DOWN from 112 (perhaps to avoid that 113 "jinx"), then perhaps the Louie engine might have been #110. Anyone got a photo of IT? Les |

Yes, the 110 was the M&StL engine. More info here: http://donsdepot.donrossgroup.net/dr136.htm A little basic history here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevier_and ... n_Railroad |
