Flickwir Construction Engine 0-4-0T, 1910

[NW Mailing List]

>From the Steamtown releases, some photos of David Flickwir's equipment in 1910, working on construction of the New Jersey Cut Off. 

The first photo shows a cute little 0-4-0T stencilled "David W Flickwir - Roanoke, Va." Since this engine is marked with Flickwir's company name, it was likely owned equipment, rather than leased for the particular job. It would be very interesting to know how the Flickwir engines, shovels, four-wheel dump cars, etc, were purchased, maintained, transported from job to job, and disposed of.
