WAB 2-8-0 2324 - Wabash Railway |
Description: |
WAB 2324 was part of a 30 unit order built by Burnham, Williams & Co (predecessor of Baldwin Locomotive Works) as a class H-7 for the Wheeling & Lake Erie RR. The locomotive had 58” drivers and an overall engine/tender wheelbase of 57.87”. During the 1920’s, Wabash had acquired these units, supercharged them creating class I3s units. Although these short-haul engines didn’t gain much power, fuel economy may have been the reason behind the upgrade. |

Description: |
Just like its sister WAB #2324 in the previous photos, WAB 2325 was part of a 30 unit order built by Burnham, Williams & Co (predecessor of Baldwin Locomotive Works) as a class H-7 for the Wheeling & Lake Erie RR. The locomotive had 58” drivers and an overall engine/tender wheelbase of 57.87”. During the 1920’s, Wabash had acquired these units, supercharged them creating class I3s units. Although these short-haul engines didn’t gain much power, fuel economy may have been the reason behind the upgrade. |

WAB 2-8-0 2325 - Wabash Railway |
Description: |
The dutiful engineer is oiling his drivers while stopped. Note the two cabooses behind, the latter one looks like a wooden Wabash caboose while the closer one appears to be a steel clad one. |

"Once Upon The Pennsy," Page 52, 1953 |
Description: |
Here is page one of a four-page camera study by Frederick Westing entitled "Once Upon The Pennsy." It was published originally in the February 1953 issue of "Trains & Travel" magazine, page 52. Top Photo Caption: "The grace and glory of early 20th century varnish is caught up in this shot of the 'Pennsylvania Special' on its second westbound trip on June 16, 1902, as Engineer Martin H. Lee whips his classic D-16a through Morrisville, Pa., at 85 miles an hour." Shown here is PRR engine #1395, a D-16A (4-4-0) "American" built in Juniata during May of 1898, rebuilt as a D-16 in October of 1911, and retired in March of 1923.
