Texas Lumberjack



Here is a Baldwin 1911 2-8-0 Consolidation located at the Texas Transportation Museum in San Antonio. Owned by the C.W. Carter & Brothers Lumber Company in East Texas, there is a clear family relationship with another Texas lumberjack in Teague. TTM's #6 has made steam during the time it has been in San Antonio (1984) but I am unsure of its condition right now.

Below is a photo of a Baldwin Mikado class locomotive that's at the B-RI Museum in Teague, Texas. , which was owned by W.T. Carter & Brother Lumber Company. I enthusiastically recommend you visit both these quality museums, both volunteer operated and cared for. Texas Transportation is located right next to San Antonio International Airport. Teague is located right off Interstate 45
