Man, did this ever take on a life of its own.
First off, the 15" cylinders pretty clearly place this machine in Class 10-24-1/4D. Because I'm curious and apparently don't have anything else to do I spent a while looking at and summarizing the Baldwin records available on the SMU website. Second, the order for this locomotive is very clearly present in the Index of Construction Numbers, transcript from that source is "53413, 7/1920, H.G. Bohlssen Mfg. Company #1, 2-6-2, 15x24 cylinders, 44" drivers, to Angelina Hardwood Lbr. Co. #1.". A handwritten note at the bottom of the page reads "53413 later to Waco, Beaumont, Trinity & Sabine #1". Third, I spent a brief amount of time googling H.G. Bohlssen Lumber, the Tram & Railroad Database on the Texas Forestry Museum website has the following information entered for this operation:
"The Angelina Hardwood Lumber Company, located at Ewing, was a joint partnership between H. G. Bohlssen and interests from Angelina County Lumber Company. With Bohlssen's death in 1922, his Widow sold her interests to Angelina County Lumber Company and the Henderson family. The mill operated until 1944. Tramming operations were conducted by Angelina Hardwood Company. Effie Boon reported that the company operated a small locomotive on the spurs and a steam loader. Shipping was handled by the Angelina & Neches River RR Co., the Angelina County Lumber Company tap-line. It is uncertain who owned the steam railroad equipment of the Angelina Hardwood Company, either it or its parent, Angelina County Lumber Company. It is possible the Angelina Hardwood leased it and other equipment from the A&NR. Most of the in-woods operations were handled by oxen and mules, trucks, and two-wheeled carts. The train yard and loading docks at Ewing were dangerous. H. G. Bohlssen, the owner, was killed by sliding lumber on a loading dock, in 1922. John Franklin Davison died underneath a train at the switching yard some years later. Keeling notes that Angelina Hardwood Company operated a logging tram, but he does not give a list of equipment. He also notes the tram road under Bohlssen Mfg. Co. of Lufkin."
Now to the Baldwin factory records. Baldwin nominally built 161 locomotives in the 10-24-1/4D class. The specification sheets website includes two indexes, one by purchaser and the other by class. Someone probably at SMU created these indexes, I have found a few transcription errors in them in the past but generally they are good. That being said, this locomotive as linkthebutler indicates does not appear in either index. I summarized the information for the 10-24-1/4D Class from the Class index, and I found there are several examples of duplicate numbers in the index (specifically numbers 42-45 are duplicate and there are two #48s and two #88s) and then three numbers that are missing from the index, #56 (1905 date), #131 (1919 date), and more importantly to this question #136 from 1920. Given available information it appears this locomotive is likely 10-24-1/4D-136. I have never been able to decipher the rationale behind the order in which locomotives appear in the 80 or so volumes of the specification sheets posted to the SMU website, so I have no way of narrowing down in which volume this locomotive might appear.
The index of the 10-24-1/4D class as summarized from the SMU follows, with the duplicates hopefully in red text and the three missing records in blue. Edited to add the duplicates may be class number transcription errors, but I'm not about to invest the time at least now to run those down.
