ATSF 0-4-0T #9419 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
Description:
Thanks to the research efforts of Chuck Zeiler, the online discrepancies about this loco have been resolved. This cute, small 0-4-0 tank loco built by Burnham, Wms & Co (Baldwin) in January of 1900 as a display engine #1 at the Santa Fe Terminal in San Francisco, CA. In 1912, it was renumbered ATSF 2419 and used as a shop switcher at the Needles, CA. yard. It was later rebuilt with a new boiler and renumbered ATSF 2045. On June 20, 1945, it was renumbered again as 02419 and then again on December.26, 1945 as ATSF #9419 as seen here. Finally in 1948, it was rebuilt to an 0-6-0 with a regular tender and finally renumbered #5 "Little Buttercup" for display. The rebuilt loco was eventually preserved at the History Park section of Kelley Park in San Jose, CA.Original specs - serial #17333, 0-4-0T, 51" drivers, 160 psi boiler pressure, 17x24" cylinders, modest engine weight of 100,000 lb, modest tractive effot of 18,500 lb. No exact date, location or photographer was given for this photograph.

ATSF 4-4-2 #1491 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
Description:
Built by Baldwin in 1910, the class was originally nicknamed Bull Mooser for its odd 3 dome appearance and external steam piping. The Santa Fe shops eventually simplified and superheated the class in the 1920' like #1491. They were very handy for branch-line local passenger service and lasted until the early 1950's. Original specs - class 1480, 73" drivers, 220 psi, 15x26" high pressure cylinders, 25x26" low pressure cylinders, engine weight of 231,675 lb, tractive effort of 22,038 lb. No date, location or photographer listed but it appears to be the Kansas City, MO, train shed.

Description:
Built by Baldwin in 1910, the class was originally nicknamed Bull Mooser for the odd 3 dome appearance and external steam piping, but the Santa Fe shops eventually simplified and superheated the class in the 1920' like #1497 here. That removed the extra steam dome and streamlined the external piping. They were very handy for branch-line local passenger service and lasted until the early 1950's. Original specs - class 1480, 73" drivers, 220 psi, 15x26" high pressure cylinders, 25x26" low pressure cylinders, engine weight of 231,675 lb, tractive effort of 22,038 lb. No date, location or photographer listed but it appears to be in Wichita, KS based on the background building.

Description:
Looking resplendid before taking its place at Travel Town after being donated in 1953, this 1899 Baldwin2-8-0 Consolidation started out as #891, an ATSF class 664. It had the small 57" drivers and was an oil burner that developed a boiler pressure of 180 psi and generated a tractive force of 33,145 lb. This lucky locomotive survived at Travel Town while most of the other class members were scrapped before WW II. Unknown photographer. The day in July, 1953 is approximate.
