Northwestern Steel & Wire shuffles hoppers at the mill protected by the flagman. They would use these engines until they wore out, then melt them down and make wire out of most of them. Ex GTW #8315, class P-5-b, a photo of this engine in service during GTW days is seen in Dr. Richard Leonard's Steam Archive, a link is found on the links tab above.
