SIRY 4-6-0 #23 - Southern Indiana Rwy |
| Description: |
This appears to be an original sepia stained Burnham, Wms & Co builder's photo of the Southern Indiana Rwy 4-6-0 ten wheeler #23. Although the date listed here is 1/1/1900 due to the limitations of the RRPA data base, the actual build date was April, 1898. The Indiana Southern Rwy was a subsidiary of the massive Chicago Milwaukee & St Paul. In 1904, it was renumbered SIRY #303 and in 1910 CTH&SE #303. The loco was absorbed into the CM&StP roster in 1923 as #2182 and reclassified as G4-f. By 1925, the loco had been purchased by Deering S.W. Rwy as their #10. Again in 1928 it was sold to an unknown party. Disposition of this loco is unknown. Original specs - serial #15890, class 21 (later G4-f), 56" drivers, 180 psi boiler pressure, 17x24" cylinders, modest engine weight of 108,000 lb, modest tractive effort of 18,950 lb. |

SIRY 4-6-0 #23 - Southern Indiana Rwy |
| Description: |
The Southern Indiana Railway was a short line in Indiana built to access the coal fields found there. Eventually it fell under the control of Chicago Milwaukee & St Paul (later, CMStP&P, later still, Milwaukee Road) in order to take advantage of the coal supply heading north to Chicago. The coal fields finally went defunct and along with the Milwaukee's financial problems caused trackage reductions. Jumping to 2006, the Indiana Rail Road took control of the remaining section of trackage between Terre Haute and Bedford. Only memories of the Southern Indiana Rwy remain. |
