Don's Rail Photos
Bevier & Southern RR
In North Central Missouri there once was a fabulous little railroad which was designed to haul coal. I was fortunate enough to see it 40 years ago, but it was not a day they were running. They had Moguls from several sources. They once had electric locomotives from Indiana. They ran a Mikado. And they ended up with some borrowed diesels. Then the coal ran out. Here are some photos of the power used by this little short line gem.
109 was built by Brooks in 1900, as Illinois Central 560. It was renumbered 3719 and sold as B&S 109 in 1946..
110 was built by Baldwin in December 1910, #35770, as Minneapolis & St. Louis 369, Class F-2. It was later renumbered 66 in 1912 and later Class F3-33 and later Class F4-33. It was retired in November 1942 and sold to B&S as 110 in March 1943. It was scrapped in 1960.
111 was built by Baldwin in 1907 and scrapped in 1960.
112 was built by Baldwin in 1920.
Steam locomotives required water.
A 2-8-2 was leased from the Chicago Burlington & Quincy. It got the "Have Train, Will Haul" lettering, but I do not have a photo of it. In addition, several NW2 diesels were also leased from the Q including 9400A and 9409A which was renumbered 564 when the Q was merged into BN.
Electric power was also used. Three locomotives were purchased from Indiana RR in 1943 when the last trains ran at the Binkley Mine. Electrification on the B&S was short lived and the three locomotives went on to the Kansas City Kaw Valley RR about 1950.
200 was built by Terre Haute Indianapolis & Eastern in 1927 as 196. In 1930 it became IRR 753 and was rebuilt in 1935. At Binkley it was used as standby power as it was considered powerful but slippery. When the KCKV purchased it, it was used only as a parts source and was never relettered.
201 was built by Union Traction of Indiana in 1928 as 787. In 1930 it became Indiana RR 787 and was rebuilt in 1939. It ended the IRR at Binkley Mine in April 1943 and was sold to Bevier & Southern as 201. In approximately 1950 it came to the KCKV where only the name was changed.
202 was built by Terre Haute Indianapolis & Eastern in 1920 as 192. In 1930 it became IRR 752 and also ended at Binkley. It was then sold to B&S as 202 and came to KCKV where it also had only the name changed.
