Summary

Description
English: In the early 50’s, fascinated by steam-power, the Clark brothers began to rescue steam locomotives from the cutting torch creating “green pastures for iron horses” at the Trading Post. Conceived with a lot of hard work and an impressive collection of locomotives—including models by Climax, Heisler, Shay and Porter—the White Mountain Central Railroad was born.

1906 Baldwin

This 2-4-2T wheel arrangement locomotive was built by Burnam Williams & Co. (under license to the Baldwin Locomotive Works) in November 1906 at Philadelphia Pennsylvania. It was bought new by the J.E. Henry Lumber Co. It was driven by Louis Boyle from 1906 until 1946. After that it was relegated to yard switcher service until 1964. Its last run at the mill was in 1969.

East Branch & Lincoln 2-4-2T no. 5 was on static display for many years at the entrance to the Loon Mountain Ski resort in Lincoln, NH. In 1999, she was moved only a couple of miles down the road to Clark's Trading Post in exchange for a 1917 porter locomotive.
