ATSF 4-8-4 #3753 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe |
| Description: |
With a need for more powerful locomotives to handle the ever increasing passenger and freight train lengths, the Santa Fe turned to the Northern 4-8-4 configuration, named after the 1st railroad - Northern Pacific - to receive them. This 1927 Baldwin built locomotive running in the wide open expanses in this photo was an ATSF class 3751 with tall 73" drivers. It developed a boiler pressure of 210 psi and generated an impressive 66,021 lb tractive effort. Rebuilt in 1938, it would have almost all of the modern improvements making it one of the best. The class was retired in 1956-57. The date is approximate |

ATSF 4-8-4 #3774 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe |
| Description: |
Stopped outside this small depot in the open western country, ATSF #3774 was a 1938 Baldwin built 4-8-4 "Northern" type locomotive with very high stepping 80" drivers for speed, a whopping 300 psi boiler pressure and generated a massive 79,968 lb tractive effort, making it ideal for the ATSF long hauls through the western states. During one of its overhauls, this loco was switched to burning oil, a distinct advantage out west. The class was finally retired in 1959. The date of this photo is approximate. |
