PD

In July 1896, Rhode Island locomotive works delivered a 2-8-4T tank locomotive to the Dominion Coal Co. that got the builder's number 3127. This wheel arrangement is sometimes being called “Consolidation Forney”. The locomotive got the number 14 and was named after Henry Farnam Dimock, one of the founders of the Dominion Coal and the Dominion Iron and Steel Company. The railroad was later operated under the name Sydney & Louisburg Railway. The locomotive had been renumbered to 51 in 1901 and was scrapped in 1951.
