Carson Peck purchased three locomotives in 1907. No. 5 was a 15-ton 0-4-4 T Forney built by Hinkley for the Bridgton & Saco River Railroad in 1882.

Two foot and 600 mm gauge railways are narrow gauge railways with track gauges of 2 ft (610 mm) and 600 mm (1 ft 11 + 5 ⁄ 8 in), respectively. Railways with similar, less common track gauges, such as 1 ft 11 + 3 ⁄ 4 in ( 603 mm ) and 1 ft 11 + 1 ⁄ 2 in ( 597 mm ), are grouped with 2 ft and 600 mm gauge railways.
