One was sold the the Oregon-American Lbr. Co.
at Vernonia, OR and worked there for a few
years, but did not last to the very end of steam.

NO, but almost. O-A closed their operation in 1957, two years after No. 61 was scrapped.

Narrow gauge connection: O-A was started by David C. Eccles of the Oregon lumber Co. and Sumpter Valley Railway. He was forced to sell out before any actual logging ocurred.
