Built for Buffelen Lumber & Mfg. Co.  Ran wild in 1926 and tipped off a curve into Eagle Gorge, WA.  It remained there until being salvaged in 2002(?).  Current owner is unknown to me, but it might be at the Port of Tillamook Bay, joining Scott Wickert's two Heislers, which were until recently stored at the Mt. Rainier Scenic RR.
