ATSF 4-8-2 # 3718 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe  Contributor's Pick!       
This 4-8-2 "Mountain"-type locomotive stands next to a watering stand pipe in an unknown yard. This 1920 Baldwin built locomotive had tall 69" drivers, produced a boiler pressure of 200 psi, and generated a respectable 54,085 lb tractive effort. After 30+ years of mostly passenger service, the class was scrapped between 1950-55. The date is approximate.
