Summary
[edit]DescriptionNo. 8 at the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad, Portland - June 1997.jpg |
English: The last locomotive built for any of the Maine Two-Footers, #8 would also be the heaviest 2-4-4T, at 38 Tons. Built in 1924 #8 would be delivered just before the decline of the B&SR began. In 1930 #8 would change to B&H #8 and would derail on the Harrison Branch due to poor tie conditions and light rail. This accident would cause the closure of the Harrison Branch. After this #8 was used primarily as a reserve engine until #6 went out of service. In the last few years of the B&H, locomotive #8 became the primary motive power after #7 suffered firebox damage and she would serve in this role right until the end of the railroad in Bridgton.
