RDG 4-4-0C #406 - Reading Co
Title:  RDG 4-4-0C #406 - Reading Co
Description:  Beautiful original photo of Reading Shops built 4-4-0 C "American type" camelback delivered in 1911 as a member of the D-8c class. In 1920, several of the class were superheated, redesigned with Walschaert radial valve gears and reclassified as D-8sd. This locomotive made it to June of 1945 before being retired and scrapped. No photographer or date given but since the Walschaert vale gears are present, the photo was taken after 1920. I left the photo in its sepia coloring as it is fitting for this locomotive to be seen as a beautiful "golden oldie"

RSCX 0-4-0T #53 - Republic Steel Co
Title:  RSCX 0-4-0T #53 - Republic Steel Co
Description:  Originally this loco was a Bourne-Fuller Steel Co 0-4-0 tank switcher but with the mergers of Bourne Fuller, Republic Steel and Central Alloy Steel, this little 0-4-0 tank loco fell under the Republic Steel steam roster. Just a small piece of history in the steel industry but i'll bet it was an important switcher at one time! Disposition unknown. Paul Prescott photo

AMIN Heisler 2-truck #4 - Ayrshire Collieries (Mines) - Indiana
Title:  AMIN Heisler 2-truck #4 - Ayrshire Collieries (Mines) - Indiana
Description:  Nice example of a 1927 Heisler built 2-truck locomotive originally for Mid-Continent Iron Co, serial #1541. Eventually in wound up at the Ayrshire Collieries (Mines) located in unincorporated Ayrshire, Indiana. Not sure but I believe it's sitting next to sister Heisler #5, 6 or 7. This is an R. A. McLeod photo. There is some debate whether AMIN (early) or AMAX (later) is the proper reporting mark - I've listed both.

Title:  ATSF 4-4-2 #1497 - Atchison, Topeka & Sant` Fe
Description:  Built by Baldwin in 1910, the class was originally nicknamed Bull Mooser for the odd 3 dome appearance and external steam piping, but the Santa Fe shops eventually simplified and superheated the class ik the 1920' like #1497 here.
