B&MR 4-6-0 294 |
Description: |
Burlington & Missouri River Railroad 4-6-0 294 at Paterson, New Jersey sometime in May 1892, photographer unknown, Chuck Zeiler collection. This ten wheeler was built by the Rogers Locomotive & Machine Works of Paterson, New Jersey, completed in May 1892 as B&MR 294. During 1898, the Burlington System created a classification system for its locomotives, and this one became a class K-1, with no change in the number. During 1904, the Burlington consolidated the locomotive numbering system, and 294 became CB&Q 626. It was retired in December 1931. |

CB&Q 2-6-0 Class H-1 35 |
Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-6-0 Class H-1 35 presumably on the Erie at Paterson, New Jersey, sometime in 1891, photographer unknown, Chuck Zeiler collection. This locomotive was built by the Rogers Locomotive & Machine Works of Paterson, New Jersey in December 1891 (c/n 4624) as a Mogul type for the CB&Q. An interesting note about the Rogers Works (later, a subsidiary of Alco). The Works did not have a direct rail connection. The nearest railroad was the Erie, about a mile from the factory. The finished locomotives were hauled through the city of Paterson first on temporary tracks laid in the streets and pulled by teams of as many as 20 horses. Later, when streetcars were operating in Paterson, heavy flatcars were used, again using "horsepower". During 1898 the CB&Q adopted a locomotive classification system, this locomotive became a class H-1, one of 116 H-1's from various builders and CB&Q subsidiary railroads. During 1904, the CB&Q adopted a numbering system for locomotives, this locomotive became 1089. It was retired in May 1927. |

CB&Q 4-4-0 Class A-6 550 |
Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 4-4-0 Class A-6 550 at Paterson, New Jersey sometime in April 1893, photo by Rogers Locomotive & Machine Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. The Burlington Route System had a few hundred 4-4-0 locomotive types, but only one built by Rogers. This one was completed in April 1893, delivered as a class M, and was displayed at the Columbian Exposition in Chicago that same year. By 1898 it was renumbered to 1550, re-classed as an A-6, and regularly assigned to mail trains. In 1904, the Burlington consolidated its locomotive numbering system, this one became 472. In 1916 this locomotive was again renumbered, this time becoming 193. It was retired in December 1922. |

Description: |
Here is the camelback version of the 4-6-0 ten wheeler, a much different configuration. Do note the extended cover for the fireman in the back. Built by either the Erie Susquehanna shops or Baldwin between 1891-96, this originally was New York, Lake Erie & Western #260, a class G-8, but was transferred to the Erie RR at a later date. The day in July is approximate. Harold K. Vollrath photo |

Title: |
It really is urban railroading |
Description: |
The NYSW local is off in the distance in what looks like a rural setting, but which is actually in Paterson. Stack trains are coming to this line in less than a year. |

Ole signal |
Description: |
WS 1 passes an ancient semaphore that has not governed a train move in several decades. Still makes for a good prop. |

Signal |
Description: |
An ancient relic of a bygone era waits for the passage of WS 1, way off in the distance. The train will take ten minutes to reach me. |

Not exactly dashing through the snow |
Description: |
Despite having taken on international stack trains, some of the track on the NYSW was not exactly high speed at this time. This local is not setting speed records as it rolls through Paterson. |
