    I never knew that Boston and Maine had leased Erie Mikado locomotives. Fantastic video!

    When working with Clyde Sessions, long time B&M machinist helper & machinist at East Deerfield and later at No. Walpole, including Blount’s 1st and only Master Mechanic when asked about the 2100’s “grasshopper” nickname said he didn’t know for sure but most of the men thought it was because of the high drivers, small smoke box diameter but with the high mounted boiler reminded one of a “grasshopper”. Clyde was one of the best common sense mechanics (B&M management opinion) and accepted a move to No. Walpole from East Deerfield because as “Packy” McFarland ( I believe) said to him, you like steam and it will be there for a while. That was near the end of steam and so he was trapped there when steam went and until Blount came along. C. B. Ahrens

    I love how the B&M 0-4-4t just look like giant Maine two foot gauge ones😂

    I've never heard of these locomotives until now, they seem unique

    Wish the photo of the ICRR Mike 1516 was 1518. The later was my great grandfathers loco.

    Where’d you get that color photo of 3013? I know it’s off of one of the farewell to steam trips, probably somewhere around cedar hill, but I’ve never seen that photo before

      That image comes from the Dana D. Goodwin collection in the B&MRRHS Archives

    Ten wheelers are my favorite wheel arrangement much to do with Searra no 3

    Were the Erie units scrapped after being returned?

      Sadly, yes. The Erie scrapped them all after they were retired, along with all the rest of their steam fleet. Hope this helps!
