This engine is one of the first internal combustion engines used by the Missouri Pacific Rail Road. It ushered in a new form of motive power that eventually replaced the steam engine.

This engine was last used at the Mackie-Clemens Mine #22 in the 1970s. The locomotive is mechanically driven thru a transmission and has drive chains to the wheels. It was restored by the Heartland's in 1999.
