The Coos Bay Lumber Co. purchased this 73-ton, 2-8-2 Mikado-type steam locomotive in 1922 from Baldwin Locomotive Works in Philadelphia, Penn.
Engine No. 104 pulled log trains - sometimes as many as 100 cars - from the Powers and Fairview areas of Coos County from 1923 to 1954.
In 1956 it was sold to Georgia-Pacific and moved to Toledo, Ore.
It remained on standby duty until 1960, when it was donated to the Coos County Historical Society. It was displayed outside their North Bend museum until 1999, when it was turned over to the Oregon Coast Historical Railway.
It was moved to Coos Bay in 2001.
