A massive Great Northern 2-8-8-0 steam engine stored at Superior WI in June 1958. |
Description: |
This was at the end of steam where steam engines were stored in case of need during the fall grain rush across the GN system. The GN had a large yard in Superior WI that remains a large switching yard on the BNSF. 4 BNSF SD9's that once locked couplers with steam engines still remain on the BNSF in 2012. Search for BNSF 1553 on the archive. http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=2749873. This steam engine was based out of Allouez roundhouse. |

Erie 2-8-8-8-2 #5016 - A Rare Triplex Loco |
Description: |
Between 1914-1916, the Baldwin Locomotive Works built 3 triplex locomotives for the Erie Railroad. Labeled class XA for experimental, they were built to extremely high tractive force to move trains over steep inclines. The locomotive had one high pressure set of cylinders and two low pressure sets. The third set of drivers were under the tender, technically making it the world's largest tank engine in a way! This photo appears to be a Baldwin Works photo taken at Philadelphia. |
