BOOTHBAY 1 |
| Description: |
Boothbay Central Railway 1 at Boothbay, Maine on an unknown day in August 1981, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I was in a tight spot, or I would have gotten a better photo. It appears this locomotive received a replacement boiler (#10187) as the builder's number seen here does not match what the site railwayvillage.org shows. The following is from that site: Baldwin Steam Locomotive #14283 Built (April) 1895 for S. D. Warren Co., Westbrook, ME. Sold to Van Walsh, Hr., of Ridgewood NJ. Sold to Boothbay Railway Museum, 1969. 0-4-0T. Display |

Closeup of Boothbay Central Railway 1 builder's plate at Boothbay, Maine on an unknown day in August 1981, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. It would appear that this plate is on a replacement boiler for an 0-4-0T 36 gauge locomotive built in April 1985 for the S. D. Warren Company, which carried the original serial number 14283. So far, no records have surfaced for Extra Order Baldwin numbers. |

CB&Q 0-4-0 176 |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 0-4-0 176 at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, April 1871, photo by Baldwin Locomotive Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. This locomotive would have been classed E-1 but was retired before the Burlington implemented the locomotive classification system in 1898. The following is from the book, "Steam Locomotives of the Burlington Route", by Bernard C. Corbin and William F. Kerka: The first locomotives purchased directly by the Burlington System from the Baldwin Locomotive Works were the two 0-4-0 types completed in April 1871 and numbered 176 and 177. The boilers had copper fireboxes and iron tubes, and were of the wagon-top type. The water injection system consisted of two crosshead-driven pumps and one steam-fed injector. Stephenson valve-gear motion was used. The tenders were of the typical eight-wheeled type with straight tank tops and a capacity for 1,600 gallons of water. In appearance the locomotives were very similar to engine number 202, an 0-4-0 built at the CB&Q shops in 1877. The early Baldwins, however, were elaborately painted and finished with brass cylinder casings, steam chests, and domes. Polished brass jacket bands also encircled the boiler. Engines 176 and 177 had 16"X22" cylinders, drivers of 49" diameter, and each had a total engine weight of 56,000 pounds. |
