Bisso Towboat 2         
This was the former Texas Pacific-Missouri Pacific Terminal Railroad of New Orleans 0-6-0 number 2 shortly after it had been repainted by the Bisso Towboat Co. Bisso had owned the locomotive for over 30 years, and finally decided to fix it up. The yellow stripe on the stack was a trademark of Bisso tugboats. The locomotive was built by Alco's Richmond Works (serial No. 42929) in June 1907 as Trinity & Brazos Valley 76, and was later TPMPTRRofNO number 2.
