CP 2-8-0 #3229 - Canadian Pacific |
| Description: |
Interesting photo of an 1899 Alco-Richmond built ten wheeler. Originally it was #723 but the entire class of ten wheelers went through several rebuilts and renumberings (this one was renumbered in July 1902 to #1025, renumbered in May 1906 to # 1429 ans reclassed from SE3 to M1c, renumbered in April 1913 to #3229, cylinders wer changed from 21&23X26 compound to 20X26 simple in November 1913). Number 3229 was listed as an oil burner between 1938 and 1941. Starting with #3215 being scrapped in June of 1921, most of the class was scrapped in the 1930's. #3214 however, lasted until after WWII before being scrapped in December of 1946, #3229 was scrapped in April 1941. This was marked as a Harold K. Vollrath photo and also marked as having belonged to the Pacific Western Rwy collection (owned and operated by Union Lumber Co). |
