Description:
Interesting and rare photo of a Toledo & Indiana RR steeplecab. The concept behind the Toledo & Indiana was to link Toledo, Indianapolis & Chicago by interurban rail. Begun as the Toledo & Indiana Rwy, it eventually evolved into the Toledo & Indiana RR. Eventually it was controlled by Cities Services Co after 1926. The interurban section was abandoned in 1939. No exact date in 1937 was given nor was a location or photographer for the photo.

CO 4-8-0-4-8-4 #500 - "John Henry"
Description:
Born from a desire to remain a coal using company, C&O collaborated with Baldwin to create three steam turbines for service on a proposed "Chessie Streamline" between Washington DC and Cincinnati. The locomotive was powered by a single Westinghouse turbine which drove four 1000 kilowatt DC generators who turned eight traction motors. This was the longest single-unit locomotive in the world at the time. Sadly, it was not the sucess it was supposed to be. The Chessie Streamliner was cancelled before it ran service and the 3 steam turbines were retired and scrapped in 1950. No exact date or location was given for the photo.

BO 2-10-2 #6184 - Baltimore & Ohio
Description:
Here's a fairly good looking and powerful member of the B&O roster, B&O 2-10-2 #6154. The loco was built by the Lima Locomotive Works in June of 1926 as part of the third round of 2-10-2's ordered for the B&O.

Specs - S-1a class, 64" drivers, 220 psi boiler pressure, 30x32" cylinders, engine weight of 436,510 lb, tractive effort of 84,300 lb. No date, location or photographer was listed for this photo.
