| Description: |
According to SteamLocomotives.com, "the Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad bought seven "Santa Fe" type locomotives from the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1918. These 2-10-2s were designated as Class O-1 and were given road numbers 2000 through 2006. They had 63" diameter drivers, 30" x 32" cylinders, a 200 psi boiler pressure, exerted 77,714 pounds of tractive effort and each weighed 377,300 pounds. The combined heating surface was 6,616 square feet and the piston valves were 15" in diameter." After dealing with slippage and slow speeds, C&EI sold this unit to the C&O in 1945.It was eventually scrapped in 1951. No photographer listed for this photo. |
