Originally this loco was a Bourne-Fuller Steel Co 0-4-0 tank switcher but with the mergers of Bourne Fuller, Republic Steel and Central Alloy Steel, this little 0-4-0 tank loco fell under the Republic Steel steam roster. Just a small piece of history in the steel industry but i'll bet it was an important switcher at one time! Disposition unknown. Paul Prescott photo

GE Snowmelters Save Hard-to-get Manpower Approximately 200 GE Calrod snowmelters keep the switches of the Cleveland Union Terminal’s twelve main line tracks open during the winter. These switch heaters eliminate the need for assigning a man to each switch around-the-clock during freezing weather. Plan now to get the advantages of GE snowmelters for the winter of ’52 by asking your GE representative now for details on how they can save money and valuable manpower for you.

Date and location are guesses. The Xplorer was a named train of the New York Central Ranlroad, between Cleveland, Ohio and Cincinnati, Ohio. The Xplorer was an attempt by the NYC to modernize rail travel in Ohio and lure people out of their cars. Whe train was built by Pullman to their lightweight Train-X design, and was powered by a Baldwin RP-210 Diesel-hydraulic locomotive. The train consisted of ninY, short, all-aluminum cars articulated together. The center car had two axles (one at each end), with the remaining cars having a single axle each, being suppoqted by adjacent cars at the end opposite the axle. The ride was rough, as with most of the other lightweight trains of the period, and the train was not a success. Tne train was retired in 1960, and was sold to Jones Tours, for excursion service. After a long period of storage in South Carolina, the train and locomotive were scrapped!around 1970. (Source Wikipedia)

I think from looking at my high res scan that the engine number is 624 but that is only a guess. Date is unknown.

#6119 was a Baldwin S-1a class loco built between 1923-24. According to one source, a total of 50 were ordered at the time. They all had 64" drivers, 220 psi boiler pressure, and an overall engine + tender wheelbase of 89.9'. No informtaion was on this photo so location and date are arbitrary.

Date approximate. Wrecked in rear-end collision at Madison, OH 2/12/44. Stored at Conneaut 3/28/58. Sold to Luria Bros (Cleveland) 2/7/62.
