Republic Steel Corp. No

Republic Steel Corp. No. 191 was Built as #3 by Alco in 1916 for the Central Steel Co., of Massilion, OH, this 0-6-0 is a typical example of an early twentieth century American switcher.

After fifty years working at Massilion, it was sold to the dealer Preston Duffy & Son in Columbus, OH, then to J. David Conrad of Columbus, OH, in 1969 when it was retired and finally, to the Monticello Railway museum that same year.

When No. 191 arrived at Monticello in 1971, and after receiving an overhaul, it operated at the museum from October 1972 until 1987 when the locomotive is now placed on static display.
