    The old steam locomotive was primarily used to transport material for the Skagit Project, a project to install powerplants along the Skagit River starting in 1920. Four years later, the train also transported tourists into the area around Newhalem until the construction of a passable road as part of the state highway system. The locomotive was running until 1954 when the railroad was finally removed.
