#2 was scrapped some time prior to WW2- if my memory is correct, long before WW2- possibly in the very early 20th century. Very few photos of #2 exist. Q&TL #1 and #2 were virtually identical.

#1 and #5 are up on top of the hill at present, and when they were moved to their present location, the contractor doing the move mistakenly placed the tender for #1 with #5 and similarly the tender for #5 is behind #1.

In an odd twist of trivia, Q&TL #1 hauled both the first and the last trains on the Quincy & Torch Lake.
