LRC Prototype - UPI Press Release |
| Description: |
This is a fascinating look at the development of high-speed passenger train history. This is the original UPI press photo and releaser used in newspapers about the Canadian prototype high-speed train, "LRC". The press release states "1-/2/1974-Chicago: A prototype Canadaina Passenger train, built to compete with the French Turbotrain in the high-speed rail passenger market passed throough Chicago 10/1 on its way to the Pueblo, Colo. testing area. The main feature of the LRC - "light=weight, rapid, comfortable" - is is suspension system which allows it to round curves 35-40% faster than conventional trains. The LRC coach is of aluminum and is 50,000 pounds lighter than a standard 85-foot coach. The train is the product of a consotium of Alcan Canada Products, Dominion Foundries and Stee, and MLW industries. (UPI) js/hdo." Interesting side note - Bombadier purchased MLW in 1975 to get control of this model. |

Baltimore & Ohio 4-6-0 #1355 |
| Description: |
BO 1355 was one of ten built by the B&O shops in 1891 as a clgss B8 locomotive. They all had 60" drivers, 170 psi, and an overall wheelbase (engine + tender) of 49.67'. According to "SteamLocomotive.com", they were confined to the Ohio River subdivision"because they could cross the old, lightly built Point Pleasant bridge over the Kanfwha River bridge due to their light weight. In the late 1940s, a new bridge meant these engines could be retired and they soon left service. Since no date or location were given, they were arbitraril{ selected based on this info. Bud Laws has been tentatively idenitified as the photographer. |

GN 2-8-8-2 #2038 - Great Northern |
| Description: |
This is a massive beast was built by the Great Northern's own Hillyard Shops in 1927. According to www.gngoat.org website, "The mountain-shrinking 2-8-8-2 was the all-time giant of Great Northern's steam fleet -- and the largest locomotive in the world when Baldwin built the first of its class. Most of the big R's, however, came from the railway's own shops at Hillyard, Washington, and were the first steam locomotives built in the Pacific Northwest." Specs - R-1s class, 63" drivers, 225 psi boiler pressure, 28x32" cylinders, engine weight of 594,940 lb, impressive tractive effort of 152,320 lb. The entire class of 2-8-8-2's were retired between 1951-1955. Only two remain - one at the Illinois RR Museum at Union, IL and one at the Museum of Transportation in Kirkwood, MO. No information was given for this photo so the date and location are "guess-timations". Unknown photographer. |

GN 2-8-8-2 #2049 - Great Northern |
| Description: |
Massive and powerful just don't seem to be adjectives that due justice to the locomotive even though they are fitting in every sense. This massive 2-8-8-2 Chesapeake type steam locomotive was built by the Great Northern's own Hilyard Shops in 1929. The Great Northern called these monsters "R's" from their class name instead of the eastern US name of "Chesapeake". Coming out of the Hillyard Shops in Spokane, WA, these were the first steam locomotives built in the Pacific Northwest. Specs - R-2 class, 63" drivers, impressive 240psi boiler pressure, four 28x32" cylinders, engine weight of 630,750 lb and impressive tractive effort of 162,475 lb. The entire class of 2-8-8-2's were retired by 1946. Only two remain - one at the Illinois RR Museum at Union, IL and one at the Museum of Transportation in Kirkwood, MO. No information was given for this photo so the date and location are "guess-timations". |
