We're looking for information to help with restoring a Vulcan locomotive. It was built in December 1918 with builder's plate #2886. The first owner was W.B. Callihan Construction Company in Columbus, Ohio. Then it was sold to Potomac Edison.
From the early 1990s, this Vulcan locomotive was owned by the Kenova (WV) Historical Commission and on display at its location on 23rd Street, Kenova, West Virginia. It was recently sold into private ownership and moved to Ravenna, Kentucky, for restoration to operating condition. Could you share some photos of this locomotive when it was operating, or do you have any stories about it?
We're especially interested in obtaining information about the original Vulcan builder's plate (#2886) and bell. Any information about their current location(s)/owner(s) is greatly appreciated.
