Folks,
I note Market Street Railway #2 is listed on steamlocomotive.info (BLW, 5009 in 1880) Steam Dummy

the locomotive went on to have a long career in logging around Fort Bragg, CA; including Navarro Mill #1, Glen Blair Redwood #3, Union Lumber Co.

The only other steam dummy I know of in California is the SF Motor Road #20 at the Traveltown Park in LA.

The locomotive is displayed inside the Guest House Museum at Fort Bragg, CA; which is now to me.

My friend Dave Spohr did the research that identified her. Before that the little beast had several IDs, all wrong. Preserved dummies are quite rare in the US. See here for more:
