Remarks & Notes 
Brooks Scanlon Corporation 2-6-2 No. 1

No. 1 was built by Baldwin in 1914 for the Carpenter-O'Brien Lumber Company in Eastport, Florida. After the United States entered World War I in 1917, the Carpenter-O'Brien Lumber Company was sold to Brooks-Scanlon Corporation which was in operation in four Florida counties by 1928. In the following years the locomotive changed hands four of five times between several interconnected Florida lumber firms. In 1959, locomotive No.1 was taken out of service by its then owner, Lee Tidewater Cypress, in Perry, Florida and sold to F. Nelson Blount in 1962 by the Lee Tidewater Cypress parent company, J.C. Turner Company. The locomotive was added to the original Steamtown collection in Vermont, and eventually ended up in Scranton, PA. This is the sole 2-6-2 Prairie type in Steamtown's collection.
