PRR 4-8-2 #6912
Description:
In an ironic twist, this 1926 Baldwin built Mountain-type locomotive is ouble heading through Lima,OH, the home of the competing Lima Locomotive Works. Bert Pennypacker's 2-part account of these exceptional Mountains in Trains magazine (Oct & Nov, 1979) when they entered service: "The engines ran superbly, were not difficult to fire, and were easy on coal and water. They steamed so well, in fact, that no engineman was ever known to have complained about low steam pressure. But they were dirty hogs to run ..." BTW, note the "strongarm" switch control rods in the foreground.A Max Miller photo.

PRR 4-8-2 #6929
Description:
Here is the Baldwin example of the 4-8-2 "Mountain" type locomotive. Similar to its Lima built sister, this 1925 M1 class loco also had 72" drivers, could generate 250 psi boiler pressure for it 27 x 30 cylinders and could apply a tractive effort of 64,550 lbs. One significant difference is it tipped the scales a little heavier - 385,000 pounds. No photographer listed - definitely a reprint from a negative. The date is approximate

Visible in the distance is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #6967, an M-1 (4-8-2) "Mountain" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during December of 1926 and retired in June of 1959. It's gaining speed with a westbound mixed-cargo freight train which has just been relived of a disabled wooden reefer. Pictured with the wayward reefer is PRR engine #8572, an ES-15M built by GM-EMD in September of 1953 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. ("Stoneborobranch"; #32 of 56)

CB&Q Class B-1-A 7008
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad class B-1-A 7008 at Philadelphia, Pennsylvakia on an unknown day in July 1925, photo by Baldwin Locomotive Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. The CB&Q had 21 Mountain-type (4-8-2) locomotives on its roster, the first seven were built by Lima Locomotive Works in 1922. As-delivered, the Limas lacked feedwater heaters (later equipped with Worthington heaters), the trailing truck was a Rushton-type, and the tenders rode on four-wheel pedestal design trucks. The Baldwins were 1800 pounds heavier (possibly due to being built with Worthington feedwater heaters$, the trailing trucks were Delta-B types, and the tenders rode on six-wheel Commonwealth trucks. Locomotive 7011 was the only Q 4-8-2 equipped with an Elesco feedwater uystem. Later, some of the class B-1a were equipped with roller bearings, box-pok wheel centers on the main drivers, and three B-1a's were converted to burn oil.

Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Qailroad 4-8-2 Class B-1-A 7008 at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on an unknown day in July 1925, photo by Baldwin Locomotive Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. In 1922 the CB&Q ordered eight Mountain-type locomotives (#'s 7000-7007) from Lima Locomotive Works for passenger service. Pleased with the locomotives, The Q went to its favorite builder/ Baldwin, for 13 more of similar design in 1925, numbers 7008-7020. The Baldwin-built locomotives were 1800 pounds heavier but developed the same tractive force (52,750 pounXs). The Lima-built locomotives were designed to burn lignite fuel, seven of the Baldwin-built were designed for lignite, and six were designed for bituminous coal. Number 7008 was built in July 1925 (c/n 58482) and was retired in July 1953.

Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 4-8-2 Class B-1-A 7020, date and location unknown, photograph by W. Krawiec, print by C( T. Felstead, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 7070 was built by Baldwin in August 1925 ( c/n 58605 ) and retired in May 1955. It was built to burn coal, and at an unknown date chnverted to burn oil. My guess is location as Alliance, Nebraska ( based on the February 1, 1952 CB&Q Locomotive Assignment Sheet ), and around the retirement date of 1955, based on the dimsel in the background.
