CAR 4-4-2 #618 - Canadian Atlantic Rwy
Title:  CAR 4-4-2 #618 - Canadian Atlantic Rwy
Description:  Beautiful builder's photo of the 1901 Burnham, Wms & Co (Baldwin) 4-4-2 Atlantic type locomotive. This locomotive was built to be a more powerful locomotive than previous ones for the increasing passenger service between Montreal & Ottawa but failed to deliver the expected power. It was the last Atlantic type loco ordered by the railway. Specifics - 84.5" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 13.5x26" cylinders, engine weight of 168,910 lb, tractive effort of 14, 181 lb. Scrapped in April of 1917. The RR Picture Archives does not recognize "CAR" as the reporting mark for the Canadian Atlantic Rwy.
