Pennsylvania 2846 (H6) |
| Description: |
1905 by Baldwin Locomotive Works, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.At the dawn of the 20th century, the Pennsylvania Railroad billed itself as the “Standard Railroad of the World,” emerging as a clear leader in American railroading. Most of the road’s freight trains were pulled by various “H” class locomotives. Even among a class of 2,029 units, no two H6 locomotives were exactly the same. No. 2846 received special accessories over its lifetime. These included: a superheater to further dry the steam on its path between the boiler and the pistons; a power reverse lever on the engineer’s side; and a rare pipe from the steam dome to the pilot wheels on the fireman’s side used in winter to discharge steam over frozen switchpoints. |

Baltimore & Ohio 2-8-0 #2952, ex C&C |
| Description: |
Only example of a class E-36 in this album built by Baldwin in 1916, one of the newer style Consolidations. This loco was originally built for the C&C Railroad but renumbered in 1918 when B&O bought out the C&C. This loco served until retirement in December, 1949. Unfortunately this is another photo with no locaiton or date information on it so they have been arbitrarily set. |

PRR 3123, H-6SB, 1939 |
| Description: |
Here is an original photo by Wesley H. Winant that was taken at South Delaware Avenue in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on 20 August 1939. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #3123, an H-6SB (2-8-0) "Consolidated" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an H-6B during 1906, rebuilt as an H-6SB in June of 1916, and sold to the Chinese Manchurian Railway in August of 1939. Looks to me like it's all set for its seagoing sojourn to the Orient. ("PalaisStation"; #1 of 2) |

B&MR 2-8-0 Class D-4 3316 |
| Description: |
Burlington & Missouri River Railroad 2-8-0 Class D-4 3316 at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania sometime in 1903, photograph by Baldwin Locomotive Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. This locomotive was built in 1903 for the Burlington & Missouri River (a subsidiary of the Chicago Burlington & Quincy) as class D-4 number 3316, renumbered in 1904 to CB&Q 3191, retired in June 1927. The B&MR received 2-8-0 class D-4 locomotives from both Baldwin (sub-classed D-4B) and Schenectady (Alco, sub-classed D-4A). A total of 100 D-4's were built, 75 by Alco and 25 by Baldwin, and at the time of their construction, they were the largest and heaviest locomotives on the Burlington system. They employed 12-inch piston steam valves actuated by Stephenson valve gear. The following is from Burlington Route Historical Society's Bulletin #29, edited by Hol Wagner: There were a number of differences between lcomotives of the two builders, chief among them being the slope of the firebox and style and positioning of the domes (the bell and sandbox being transposed on the two builders versions). The two slightly different firebox designs were both examples of the "kinked" or "broken back" arrangement commonly used in the first years of the 20th Century on early wide firebox locomotives (which also employed two separate firing doors on the backhead). In this arrangement, the rear portion of the mud ring was horizontal, while the front portion sloped downward between the last two pairs of drivers. The downward slope was more pronounced on the Schenectady D-4's than on the Baldwins. The slope had the disadvantage of allowing the fire to slide forward on the sloping grates, gathering at the firebox throat under the fire-brick arch - the point of least fire activity - and choking the lower boiler tubes while leaving a hole in the fire at the point of the kink. Consequently, the Baldwin firebox, with its lesser slope (because it began further to the rear) was a more efficient design. |
