I mentioned in last week’s blog post that I would likely scan more of the photos from the late Tom Davidson’s Louisiana Cypress Lumber Co. scrapbook. Today I have three more images to share. The first is another view of the little Prairie locomotive that Tom recorded sometime in the early 1960s. I noticed that the company name is no longer on the tender. Since the cab still has its number 1 on it, I presume the other lettering was intentionally removed.

Below is a scene captured by C.W. Witbeck as the #1 is heading back to the mill with its train of logs. When enlarging my scan, I think Tom’s photo was a scan from a magazine, evidenced by the half-tone appearance. Nevertheless, it’s a nice scene of the train heading out of the swamp.

A bit more information about the whereabouts of the loco may be found on my older post from here: Louisiana Cypress Lumber Co. #1. Be sure to read the comments on the post also.

And finally, the Witbeck image below is the water car that was trailed behind the locomotive.

Note in these last two photographs that the Louisiana Cypress Lumber Co. Inc. name does appear on the locomotive’s tender.
