Nice looking model, but is it actually of the Skookum? As I recall the Little River Railroad Co. purchased two of these, but I don't remember the road numbers. Small as she is the Skookum proved to be too large for their operation and was resold to The Whitney Co. who gave their locomotives names rather than numbers. Another Whitney Co. locomotive named "Big Jack" survives in a park near Centralia WA. It was last used by the Cowlitz, Chehalis & Cascade.
