IC 4-4-2 #1005 - Illinois Central |
| Description: |
Long before an SD70 unit wore the numbers IC #1005, this Rogers Locomotive Works 4-4-2 steam locomotive had the honor of carrying the Illinois Central #1005. Built in 4/22/1903 (according to the Rogers data), the loco was rebuilt sometime in its life and continued to serve the Illinois Central for 36 years before being retired in November of 1939. Rebuilt specs - 79" drivers, 185 psi boiler pressure, 21x28" cylinders, engine weight of 210,000 lb and tractive force of 24,271 lb. No date, location or photographer was listed for the photo but it has to be before its retirement in November of 1939. |
