Wanamaker, Kempton and Southern Railroad No. 65

Safe Harbor Water Power Co. No. 65 is an 0-6-0ST saddle tank locomotive. It was built in 1930 by the H. K. Porter Company of Pittsburgh, PA for the Safe Harbor Water and Power Company of Columbia.
It was first used as a switcher by The Arundel Corporation of Baltimore, MD for construction of the Safe Harbor Water and Power Company at Columbia, PA in 1930, and 1931.
In 1941, the locomotive was reconditioned by the Pennsylvania Railroad. Then for a period during World War II, #65 was used as a stationary boiler to provide steam to the Safe Harbor powerhouse. This may have been due to wartime oil shortages.
In 1970, it was donated to the Wanaker, Kempton & Southern Inc. then 2 years later in 1972, Number 65 was acquired from the Safe Harbor Water and Power Company of Columbia, PA where it worked as a switcher.
Later that same year in 1972, the locomotive was donated to the Wanamaker, Kempton and Southern Railroad where it worked hauling tourist trains.
Today the locomotive is still at the Wanamaker, Kempton and Southern Railroad but it's right now under an Overhaul.
==Trivia==
*After the dam was constructed, the locomotive was sold to Safe Harbor where it would remain for the next four decades.
*Around 2004 #65 was mocked up to look like Brooklyn Eastern District Terminal No. 15.
