This engine has not run in 40-50 years…
We have it running again!

In May of 1999 we purchased and started restoration on a 1928 Baldwin 2-6-6-2 T Mallet!

The engine was built originally for the Weyhauser Lumber Company in Washington State. It was then sold to Rayonier Lumber Company, then to the Heber Valley Railroad, then finally to the state of Nevada. We purchased this engine because it has 37,500 lbs. of tractive effort. Our other engines have 23,000 lbs.
