should be mentioned thai both Smith and Tyler were 

 formerly associated with the Norwich and Worcester 

 Railroad and they probably learned of these two 

 engines through t his former association. It is possible 

 that the engines were purchased fromWilmarth l>y the 

 ( umberland Valley road, which had bought several 

 other Locomotives from Wilmarth in previous years. 

 It was the practice of at least one othei New England 

 engine builder, the Taunton Locomotive Works, to 

 manufacture engines on the speculation that a buyer 

 would lie found : if no immediate buyers appeared 

 the engine was leased to a local road until a sale 

 was made.'

 going al thai time somi necessary improvements have 

 since thai time been fairly tested .is to theii capacity to 

 run our passengei trains and proved to l»- equal to the 

 dim . 



["he improvements proposed to be made have been 

 completed only on one engine \ Jenny Lind] which is now 

 running regularly with passenger trains the cosl ol 

 repairs and improvements on this engine (this being the 

 accidentally broken on the trial) amounted to 

 lln- other engine is now in the simp, no
