"The Davenport is the original steam locomotive of the Frisco Silver Dollar Line. It was numbered 76 and it was the only engine on the Line for about 8 years. It is a 2-4-0 engineer with a tender. While it is unknown the official current number (76 is the number of a different engine now), some people refer to it as "#9" or more commonly, "the Davenport". It was put on display after its retirement up until late 2008, when it was moved to the rail yard outside of the roundhouse. It has since been repainted and is currently waiting to be moved to be put back on display."

(note: it is actually now numbered #6)
