At the time of retirement, Outer Harbor Terminal No. 2 was reputed to be the oldest locomotive in daily service in the United States. Outer Harbor Dock and Wharf, Inc. Union Oil Company donated the locomotive to the Southern Californ Charpter of Railway and Locomotive in December, 1955. The 0-6-0 switching locomotive, was used along the docks at San Pedro, California. It was originally built for the Santa Fe as their No. 590, and was temporarily assigned to the Southern California Railroad as their No. 40, and was then Santa Fe No. 2285 until it was sold to the Outer Harbor Terminal Railway in 1909.
