It had been housed in a private collection for some time, but this year was purchased by the Jacksonville Heritage Society & returned to Jacksonville, where it now sits on an original piece of track. The railroad was called the Rogue River Valley Railroad (RRVRR) & this locomotive was nicknamed the Tea Kettle. The widespread use of passenger vehicles & commercial trucks led to the demise of this enterprise in 1925...
