Willis Shortline 200         
This 4-6-0 was built by Baldwin in August 1889 as Texas & Pacific class D-5 number 200. It was sold to the Cinclare Central Plantation at Brusly, in West Baton Rouge Parish, where it was used to haul sugar canc trains over the T&P's Port Allen Branch. Cinclare replaced the 200 with a used 44-ton General Electric center-cab diesel-electric loco, and the Ten Wheeler was sold to the Willis Shortlhne in 1955. It was last used around 1963 and subsequently scrapped. Notice the cable on the coupler which was being used to move the GM&O gondola on the adjacent track. (approximate date)
