Pete, the display loco in Buffalo WY is/was WYO 105, not 103. Reportedly it is ex-CBQ 1175.

Back in 1949 I was with my grandfather and we were at Buffalo...He took a picture of me in the cab and I'm thinking that it might have been the 103...My problem is that, as it always is..finding the picture, but I'll try to do so.
I know nothing about classes of engines so I can't comment on that matter, but seeing the number whetted my curiosity hence now "Ive got to find that picture.

Group - Can anyone tell me what Class H locomotive this is?
The 2-6-0 is numbered 103, it's lettered for the Wyoming Railway, the
location is UCross, WY and the date is August 23, 1947. This locomotive
looks to me to be a Class H-3.
The "hulk" of Class H-2 No. 1175 that was Wyoming Railway No. 105 is on
display in Buffalo, WY. I'm unable to find any information on other Q
locomotives sold to the Wyoming Railway.
The Corbin book roster doesn't show any Class H locomotive sales to the
Wyoming Railway. I'd appreciate knowing what Q 2-6-0 become WRy 103. Best
Regards - Louis
