Any on have any details on a locomotive that the Lehigh might have named the "Mehoopany"? From an old roster, I see a second hand engine listed as a 4-6-0 Baldwin with a construction number of 1998 built 10/1869. It shows as ex LV #132, "Mehoopany", rebuild at Wilkes-Barre in 1895 and sold to the Buffalo, Attica and Arcade in 1902.

Can anyone verify this? Or perhaps have a photo of the engine in question?
