Elk River Coal and Lumber Company Shays

Hey so I found this interesting logging railroad in West Virginia that goes by the "Elk River Coal and Lumber." Was reading about it and this photo came up of a shay crossing maybe a flooded track.
I'm a bit confused on whether the shay in the photo is #12 or #19, I read that #19 is still around today preserved in Ohio. What was the story of the ERC&L?
