| Description: |
Cute example of a Montreal Locomotive Works 4-4-0 built for the Grand Trunk Pacific (GTP) of Canadia and delivered to them in April of 1908 as their #57. When the GTP was nationalized in 1920, the new Canadian National renumbered it to #331 as seen here. The plucky locomotive served until being scrapped in August of 1938. The date is an approximation. Photo is from the Colin Menzies III collection. |

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" |

LSMS 4-4-0 #529 - Lake Shore & Michigan Southern |
| Description: |
The photo is dated 9/10/1888 but entered here as 1900 since the site does not accept earlier dates. This photo, reprinted by W. R. Hicks possibly sometime in the 1940-50's, lists the builder as Grant Locomotive Works in 1881. The locomotive had 63" drivers, 17"x24" cylinders and generated 135 lbs psi boiler pressure. This information has not been confirmed. Interesting to note the engineer is posing for the photo and note also the huge dome just in front of the cab. Many 4-4-0's with this dome were rebuilt later with the boiler dome over the front drive axle. |

CRIP 4-4-0 #609 - Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific |
| Description: |
Built by the Rock Island shops in 1890, this cute 8 wheeler was a B-16 class locomotive with 68" drivers. It could develop a modest 160 psi boiler pressure for its 18"x24" cylinders. The engine weight was 107,300 lb and it could apply a modest tractive effort of 15,552 lbs but enough to move traffic at the turn of the century. Note the crew member standing by the front coupling - must be setting it for the next linkup . . . or cleaning dead cows from the "cow catcher"! Month and day in 1933 is approximate - unknown photographer. |

NP 4-4-0 #684 - Northern Pacific |
| Description: |
Aft first glance, the 1953 date written on the back of this photo saken by L.A. Stucky seemed inconsistent until a little research shed light on this magnificent locomotive built by the New York Locomotive Works of Rome, NY in 1883. R. V. Nixon talks about 684: "The 684, [C]lass C-1, was built by the New York Locomotive Works and delivered to St. Paul the year the Northern Pacific was completed. It remained in main line passenger service for nearly 25 years and was then assigned to the Billings-Bridger passenger run. We who remember the bright red wheels, polished brass, clear-toned bell and peanut wagon whistle, can distinctly visualize the 684 starring in a Northern Pacific motion picture, along with the construction engine, Minnetonka." Nixon adds that 684 was apparently to be dismantled in 1925, but instead was overhauled and sold to the Nez Perce & Idaho as their #4."For years," Nixon continued, "the 4 spot worked the 13 miles between Craigmont and Nez Perce, Idaho. Then the inevitable happened and she was laid aside in favor of more modern power. At the time of Nixon's account she seemed to be rusting away. "But even in her disgrace she's still a proud, high-stepping beauty," he said hopefully, "and waiting only for someone to come to her rescue." And rescue they did. NP found her abandoned in a field in 1948. Read more about the fascinating history of this loco at the Bonanzaville RR Museumwebsite.

| Description: |
Iconic photo at a small town train station at the turn of the century. This plucky locomotive was one of four built by the Illinois Central Paducah Shops in 1888 to serve the growing passenger needs. Specs - class 1901, 69" drivers, 150 psi boiler pressure, engine weight 96,100 lb, tractive effort 14,369 lb. This is definitely a newer photo copy from the original negative. Unknown photographer. |
