This is a scan from a photo in the SVRR Archive Christensen Collection. We have Sumpter Valley Ry. #250 sitting to north of the South Baker engine house. For anyone wondering how I know this is 250, since no numbers are apparent, #250 had the exhaust steam injector on the engineer's side, while #251 had it on the fireman's side. The building behind #250 is the railroad stores warehouse which is still standing.
