Illinois Central 4-8-2 #2410 |
| Description: |
This 1923 Alco "Mountain" type locomotive was listed by the IC as the 2400 class following the guidelines of naming the class after the first number in the series. These units gave the IC much needed speed and increased pulling power for longer, heavier trains. The Paducah shops then built 76 more Mountain type locos between 1937-43 patterned after these first ones. This is a May, 1970 reprint from C.W. Burns original negative taken at 27th Street in Chicago. . |

IC 4-8-2 #2411 - Illinois Central |
| Description: |
Nice photo from a direct scan of the original negative and it appears that it is newly delibered 4-8-2 Mountain type locomotive built by Alco-Schenectady in 1923. No date or location was given but with Mary Rae McPherson's help (see comment below), I now believe it was taken in Chicago, IL, possibly 27th Street. The date is possibly 1923 as it appears to be a newly delivered locomotive. Specs - class 2400, builder #64580, 73.5" drivers, impressive 225 psi boiler pressure, 24x28" cylinders, engine wt 362,500 lb, tractive effort of 57,120 lb. Unknown photographer. |

| Description: |
Built by ALCO-Schenectady in October of 1913, this powerful 4-8-2 Mountain type locomotive was an excellent dual-serivce locomotibe for fast passenger as well as freight service.

After nearly 34 years of service, the loco was retired and scrapped in February of 1960. Rebuilt specs - 73" drivers, impressive 230 psi boiler pressure, 28x28" cylinders, engine weight of 376,500 lg, tractive effort of 61,824 lb. Unfortunately, no photographer, date or location was listed for the photo so approximates were used. |

| Description: |
Illinois Central mail-and-express train No. 22 had just pulled out of Union Station in New Orleans and was about to cross South Claiborne Avenue. The train was passing a long-time landmark, the Louisiana Grain Corporation’s former J.T.

| Description: |
Illinois Central 4-8-2 2451 had just passed through Government Yard and was about to cross South Claiborne Avenue in New Orleans. The train was unidentified, but it was probably No. 25 - the SOUTHERN EXPRESS. No. 25 originated in Chicago at 12:20 A.M. and only made five stops util it got to Champaign, then it became an all-stops local and was scheduled into New Orleans at 11:30 A.M., after 35 hours on the road. This train was just a few minutes away from its destination at Union Station. Notice the green diamond emblem on the right side of the water tower. The 2451 had been built by Alco in 1926, was rebuilt by the railroad with a new boiler in 1945 and was scrapped in 1955. (approximate day of photo) |
