Re: No. 60.

#60 does not seem to have been photographed as frequently as her sisters; 70, 80 & 90.
In "Next Stop Honolulu" by Chiddix & Simpson they list her specs:
MFG: ALCO - Schenectady
Date: 1925
Wheel Arrangement: 2-8-2
Fuel: Bunker C
Shop# (class): 66279
Dimensions: 44-18x22 - 156,000
NOTES: 240,000 with tender, TE 27,400
Retubed 1949? Fired Up 1950? - Stored until scrapped in 1966
In "Hawaiian Rails of Yesteryear" by Henry F. Bonnell reports:
P. 25 - #60 was used on the docks (Pier 25) in late July 1949 to supply steam for the winches operated by non-stevedores during a stevedore strike.
P.45: 60,70,80 & 90 were stored in the roundhouse and 60 was in the best condition as it was overhauled just after WWII. Last steamed in early 1953. Sold for scrap by an overzealous assistant to the General Manager 70, 80, 90 moved across Iwilei Road. #80 was the first to be cut, then 70, then 90.
#60 remained in roundhouse until December 1958 then moved outside so roundhouse could be demolished. Sat for 8 years negelected and vandalized until cut up in (June) 1966.
Page 176 of Sugar Trains Pictorial by Jesse Conde has two pictures of it being scrapped.
Victor Norton's Vol. 1 (available through the Hawaiian Railway Society in Ewa) has a photo of this locomotive and there are a few photos also in the above mentioned works including Page 161 of Sugar Trains Pictorial of the #60 listing heavily after hitting a broken rail at Maile Point. Page 310 of "Next Stop Honolulu" is devoted to the #60, also with an angle of the Maile Point derailment.
