Summary:

    The J. A. Veness Lumber Company considered purchasing a small wood-burning Mallet for their logging operations in April 1920.  The locomotive would have been dimensionally similar to Caspar Lumber Company #5, and would have been a saturated steam, split side tank, cabbage-stacked wood burner.  Baldwin Inquiry Card #6947 illustrates the design for this locomotive.
