Central Pacific Railway Locomotive 'Fairlie' ????

I stumbled onto this at Hathi Library Trust.
And it seemed 'wrong'.
I searched your site using 'Fairlie' and got nada.
I found the list of CP locomotives.
Nada
Is there another website that might help?
Did Mason build it and sell it to another RR? ...

I kept digging.
I found the Mason list on your site and see an '0-6-6-0' built 12/71.
Elsewhere I found Fairlie "Janus" – that one- tried on the B&A and "another" RR, sold to Lehigh Valley and eventually severed into two 0-6-0's thereon.
I have yet to dig in 1872 say issues of Engineering to see if there were follow-ups.
