Skookum - Baldwin 2-4-4-2

This little 2-4-4-2 Mallet was the first of this wheel arrangement, and one of only three manufactured by Baldwin. She was originally built for the Little River Railroad company in Townsend, Tennessee in 1909, carrying number 126. At that point her odyssey began. Over the years she worked for a number of roads, ending her career on her side in the woods in 1955.

Fortunately, she was salvaged by a group of railfans in 1956. She has remained to this day in disassembled form, awaiting her restoration. This Skookum archive is divided into the following pages.

	Builder's information - Specifications, builders photos and drawings as she appeared when constructed by Baldwin.
	In-Service - In service photos showing her in operation on a succession of logging railroads.
	Today - Photos of her frame and other parts as she sits today.
	Resources - book, Web, and other resources with information on this engine.
