This locomotive was delivered to HELCo for use at the South Meadows Power Station in Hartford.  It did not have a number (“52” was selected during its restoration, as the year it was built).  The locomotive eventually was transferred to the Yankee Gas facility in Waterbury and was donated to RMNE by Northeast Utilities in 2005.

This locomotive is currently on the display track at Thomaston Station.
