MILW 2-6-2 #943 - Chicago, Milwaukee, ST Paul & Pacific |
| Description: |
Built by the Milwaukee Road Shops in December 1908, this class K1 Prairie-style locomotive would be renumbered from 2095 to 5595 in 1912 and to 943 in 1938. Max Miller caught up with this loco sitting in what appears to be a deadline since its windows are boarded up and a group of tenders only sit behind it. |
