Terry,
I do not think that just because many photos of OLC #100 show her at the Bates mill you can conclude that she was simply used as a mill switcher. Very few photos exist from even the 1940's of logging engines on the OLC in the woods. That is simply because it was easier for traveling photographers to catch these engines at the mill between runs than it was to actually find them somewhere miles out in the woods.
