Sorry to have wasted NGDiss. Forum band width on this one. One of our archives committee members, Taylor Rush discovered that this is what is called a "Smoke House" lock made by a company called Williams Wilcox & Co. thus the WW & C?. So probably no railroad connection at all with this. Thanks Earl, Herb and Stewart for your input. Here is a link to a site on locks where he found the answer: [antique-padlocks.com]
