Georgetown Loop Railroad No. 12

Georgetown Loop Railroad No. 12 is a B-3-E class 2-6-2 "Prairie" type oil-fired narrow gauge steam locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works of Philadelphia, PA in 1928, originally for the Kahului Railroad (KRR) in Hawaii. After its retirement from regular service, it was originally sold to the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad (C&TS) between Chama, NM and Antonito, CO for storage, then later sold again to the Silverwood amusement park in Athol, ID. It was eventually sold once again to the Georgetown Loop Railroad between Georgetown and Silver Plume, CO where it would operate tourist excursion trains starting in 2005 when the Georgetown Loop originally ceased all of their operations for a short time one year earlier in 2004.
In August 2012, it was leased to the Midwest Central Railroad in Mount Pleasant, IA in trade for West Side Lumber Company 3-truck Shay No. 9. It would operate excursions at the Midwest Central starting in September 2012 until early 2019 when the lease expired and both steamers were returned back to their respective tourist railroads.
As of today, it is now placed in storage in Silver Plume, CO awaiting a future overhaul so it can eventually be put back into service again on the Georgetown Loop alongside former International Railways of Central America (ICRA) 2-8-0 type Nos. 40 and 111, which are both still operational at the Georgetown Loop today.
