NP 4-6-0 #249 - Northern Pacific |
| Description: |
This is a sharp looking 1900 Alco-built ten wheeler, NP class p-2 compound, with 69" drivers. It could generate a boiler pressure of 200 psi for its compound 22"x26" cylinders. Engine weight was 160,400 lb and it could produce a tractive effort of 21,854 lb. In 1920 Schenectady rebuilt it - simplified cylinder configuration - dropping the engine weight to 158,000 lb and increasing the tractive effort to 25,623 lb. Date and location are approximations and no photographer was listed for this photo unfortunately. |
