Everett Railroad No. 11 is a 2-6-0 "Mogul" type steam locomotive. It was built in 1920 by the American Locomotive Company's Cooke Works for export to Cuba, but it remained in the United States and was sold to the Narragansett Pier Railroad in 1923. It was later operated by the Bath and Hammondsport Railroad until 1949. The locomotive was acquired by the Rail City museum in New York State in 1955, where it hauled excursion trains until 1972.
In 1977, No. 11 returned to the Narragansett Pier Railroad and was partially restored, then was sold to the Middletown and New Jersey Railroad, where it was stored indoors. In 2006, No. 11 was purchased by the Everett Railroad, who sent it to the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad's shops for a complete restoration. In October 2015, the restoration was completed, and No. 11 began hauling tourist trains for the Everett Railroad. In 2022, the locomotive was converted from coal to oil firing.
