The engine 2-8-0 #9 show mostly in the video was an engine that was originally built for the Nevada California Oregon Rwy as their 14. May 1928 was when it was purchased by the Southern Pacific and was used on the Mina branch. Renumbered to 1, the engine didn’t last long on the railroad due to its weight and tractive effort compared to the SPNG 4-6-0s. In 1933, the 2-8-0 was renumbered to 9 as shown in this video. The 9 received a square tender since it was needed to fit on the NCNG’s turntables and the whaleback tender was given to SPNG 22. (22 was originally a F&CC engine, then bought by the NCO and transferred to the SP a decade later, scrapped in 1949) NCNG 9 (as shown in this video) was the last and largest locomotive on the line. I suppose it was more ideal to the railroad than the 2 previous railroads. The 9 pulled a fantrip in May 1937. It served the railroad until the end of the operations in July 1942. That wasn’t the end quite yet, when WWII broke out, the U.S. Navy acquired the engine as well as many freight cars. The 9 was renumbered to L-17 and converted to an 0-8-0, mainly to switch freight cars there. After the war ended, there were rumors that the engine was scrapped, but some say it was sent to the Philippines. I believe this engine could be scrapped. Correct me if I’m wrong if any information above me is inaccurate, but this is what I gathered about the engine. I recently visited the NCNGRR Museum and saw the Tahoe, which was a wonderful looking mogul.
