James Grafton McInnish (1903-1980) was a live steamer from Plainview, Texas.
1957 GGLS Spring Meet
Harry L Dixon wrote the following in 1957:
- Grafton McInnish of Plainview, Texas is shown with his Mikado and I think he enjoyed his run more in the evenings when he could operate the turbo-generator for head lite and cab operation. We were very pleased to have him as a guest in view of the distance he had to travel to take in our run.
Grafton McInnish of Plainview, Texas and his 3/4 inch scale Mikado which is an excellent miniature locomotive.
1965
From The Harold, Plainview, Texas, October 14, 1965
- Grafton McInnish was shown with his scale-model replica of a freight locomotive which he started in 1940 and completed in 1951. The engine works like its prototype, running on water and coal. (McInnish, who died in 1980, was co-owner with Chip Elliott of Phillips Battery and Electric.)
