CB&Q 2-6-2 Class R-4 1918 |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-6-2 Class R-4 1918 at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, sometime during 1904, photo by Baldwin Locomotive Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. Although someone wrote the date as 1909 on the photo, I referred to the book, Steam Locomotives Of The Burlington Route, by Bernard G. Corbin and William F. Kerka for the following information: In 1904, the R-4 Prairies made their appearance on the road. During that year, forty engines were built by Baldwin, and were assigned No. 1900-1939. The total engine weight of the R-4 Prairies was 208,550 pounds, their operating steam pressure was 210 psi, and they exerted a tractive force of 35,000 pounds. The boilers were of the straight-top design, but in place of the Belpaire-type firebox used on preceding classes, ones of radial-stay construction were used. The 12 inch piston-type valves were of the inboard type and were actuated by Stephenson link motion. The cylinder arrangement was similiar to the P-2 Atlantics. Although the piston rods were extended forward of the cylinders (for additional bearing support) on the first Baldwin-built Class R-4 engines, this was later modified and the extended portion was removed. Some of the R-4 locomotives had 22 X 28 inch cylinders, and others were equipped with cylinders of 25 inch bore. The operating steam pressure was reduced to compensate for the increase in cylinder diameter. By the end of 1925, 14 of the R-4 Prairies were rebuilt with new cylinders of 25 X 28 inch and Walschaerts valve gear was applied to them. These engines were reclassed R-4A. A number of R-4 locomotives were rebuilt to G-10 switchers. The rest retained their original construction features.. During World War II when the Southern Pacific Railroad became short of motive power, several of the R-4 engines were leased by that road and sent to the West Coast where they performed yard and branch-line duties. This particular R-4 was retired in December 1929. |

CB&Q 2-6-2 Class R-5 2050 |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-6-2 Class R-5 2050, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, sometime in 1906, photo by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. Baldwin built fifty class R-5 2-6-2's for the CB&Q during 1906, numbered 2050-2099. They were basically an R-4 engine with a redesigned boiler. Fifty similar engines (#'s 2100-2149) were built by the Brooks Works of the American Locomotive Company during 1906, followed by an additional 75 (#'s 2150-2224) built by Brooks the following year. The R-5 Prairie had a boiler with a sloping course at the forward end of the barrel. The boiler shell diameter was thus tapered from 70 inches at the front to 79 inches at the firebox throat. Two of the Baldwin engines were fitted with fire-tube steam superheaters of the Emerson type. The successful performance of the superheaters (which increased the available energy from the steam for conversion to useful work) eventually led to their installation on other R-5 and R-4 locomotives. Although the total engine weight of the R-5 Prairies (159,540 pounds) was somewhat greater than that of the R-4 class (151,070 pounds), they developed about the same tractive force. Their cylinder dimensions (22" X 28"), operating boiler pressure (210 psi), and driving wheel diameter (69") were also the same. By the mid-1920's 15 of the R-5 engines had been rebuilt with new cylinders and valve gear of the Walschaerts type. The rebuilt engines were re-classed R-5A. The locomotive pictured was not rebuilt and was retired in June 1947. As built it had the piston rod extension seen above the pilot truck, which provided additional bearing support. This feature was later removed. |

CB&Q 2-6-2 Class R-5 2064 |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-6-2 Class R-5 2064, date, location, and photographer unknown, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 2064 was built by Baldwin in July 1906 ( c/n 28506 ), retired in August 1950. Based on the CB&Q Locomotive Assignment Sheet dated June 1, 1950, which shows 2064 assigned to the Lincoln Division, the date and location is likely around late 1950 or early 1951 at Lincoln. |
