Number 9 here is a Porter-built 2-6-0 that personifies the many little lumber operations that were found in Missouri's Bootheel region for many years. In this case it belongs to Himmelberger-Harris, a prosporous narrow gauge (36")operation that was centered at Morehouse MO. This undated shot appears to be taken late in life as earlier photos show a different tender and legible markings. Porter No.9; (6622, 1/21) |
