#10 was the last of the locomotives purchased by the East Broad Top that did not have a trailing truck and a wide firebox. As such just 6 years after its purchase, #14 had nearly doubled #10's tractive effort. This coupled with the fact that older 2nd #4 and 2nd #5 both had higher TE, made #10 suplus by 1913. It was sold to the Ohio River and Western (controlled by the Pennsylvania Railroad) for the amount of $6,019, where it served until the road folded in 1931. At the end of OR&W serivce all locomotives were transported to a stanard gauge PRR shops facilities and scrapped.
