    Great image of an early wood burning loco. I thought I knew my old railroads but this one has me stumped. My guess would be... New Brunswick and Central? any one know for sure. Must be Canadian as the U.S. used "R.R." for rail road as opposed to Canada which used "R" for railway. Like the image below, Grand Trunk Railway.
