The Duluth & Northern Minnesota Railroad #14 is a Baldwin 90 ton 2-8-2 "Mikado" built in 1913.
History[]
#14 was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in April 1913 for the Duluth & Northern Minnesota Railroad. In 1919, the locomotive was sold to the Lake Superior & Ispheming Railroad Company after the D&NM went bankrupt. In 1959, the locomotive was sold to the Inland Stone Division of Inland Steel located by Gulliver, Michigan where it worked until retirement in 1966.
In 1974, #14 was transferred to the Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range, who later donated the engine to the Lake Superior Railroad Museum in 1981. In 1993, the locomotive was restored to operation and ran at the museum until 1998. It is currently on static display.
Trivia[]
- The locomotive starred in the 1993 Disney film "Iron Will".
