LER 2-8-0 #1 - Logansport & Eel River  Contributor's Pick!       
Built by Alco-Brooks in 1920, this nice looking Consolidation once appeared as Buffalo Creek & Gauley #13 before eventually heading to Logansport, Indiana, to star in the Logansport & Eel River excursion train. Plagued by financial problems, the LER #1 was eventually sold to Ohio Central RR in early 1990's. She was restored to operating condition to run on the Sugarcreek line, where she ran for two years. She was last in service in 1997 and is currently stored out of service at Morgan Run, Ohio on the Ohio Central, waiting for mechanical rehabilitation. G.A. McKay slide
