FRRHS 6
Title:  FRRHS 6
Description:  This 3' gauge 2-6-0 is on display at Fennimore to represent the town's former C&NW narrow gauge line. For some reason there's no way to enter both "Davenport" and "2-6-0" in the drop-down information boxes when entering a new locomotive, so I left it as "UNKNOWN".
