who built a new boiler and installed a second hand saddle tank before it was delivered to his home at Syosett, Long Island, NY Willock had the saddletank replaced with a pair of side tanks and operated the locomotive on his Indian Valley RR The locomotive moved with the Willock family to Chesterfield Md but was later sold to Frontiertown near Lake George NY After Frontiertown closed the locomotive was aquired for use by Erie Canal Village.

The sign displayed in the station says:
Our steam locomotive was built for stock in Feb 1910 by Davenport Locomotive Works. It was sold to Winston Brothers of Westfield Wisconsin, a road contractor & a regular customer. It was their 16th Davenport. Eventually it was solf to Hecla Mine at Burke Idaho where it was used into the late 1940s. Set aside as worn out, the locomotive was purchased by Dr William Willock who had the machine overhauled by Murray Brothers of Davenport Iowa

I think I know where that engine is from! It's from a private railroad back in the 1950's that was owned by a mister William Willock (Jr.). The railroad was named the "Indian Valley Railroad" which was located on Long Island, New York. If you don't believe me, find yourself a copy of "Little Railways of the World" and look up the indian valley line. I'm sure you'll see how close it looks.
