Is the little Plymouth at Raymond, New Hampshire the onetime Stewartstown No. 6, which later worked on the Wolfeboro RR? ryarger@rypn.org |

I think you'll find the Stewartstown engine at Ed Gilbert's Beaver Brook Museum in Mont Vernon, NH Check out www.beaverbrookmuseum.com http://www.beaverbrookmuseum.com davidwoodbury@adelphia.net |

Looking at photo in the post below... The locomotive appears to be a Whitcomb, 'round about a 20-tonner. You can tell a Whitcomb by the diamond nameplate above the radiator grille and by the "swiss cheese" radiator grille itself. No idea on this particular loco's past history. Regards, Jim Robinson |

> I think you'll find the Stewartstown engine > at Ed Gilbert's Beaver Brook Museum in Mont > Vernon, NH Check out > www.beaverbrookmuseum.com The locomotive on display at Beaver Brook is Stewartstown #9, but from the Stewartstown, NH Lumber Co. not the PA shortline. It was a leftover from Edaville according to a sign attached. I'm pretty sure that the PA engine wound up in Diamond Jim Robinson's (mover of the Flying Yankee) yard in the early 90s. It was painted a dingy blue at the time. Diamond Jim had a yard full of interesting stuff including a derelict wooden coach from the Bangor and Aroostook (Jackson and Sharp). He lived in Dublin, NH and passed away a few years ago. I'm sure whatever he had is now dispersed/scrapped. http://www.beaverbrookmuseum.com davidwoodbury@adelphia.net |
