WM 2-8-8-2 #909 - Sesterr Maryland |
| Description: |
This 1915 Lima built Chesapeake type locomotive demonstrated that Lima knew how to build strong locomotives to meet the growing need for more power. This+class L-1 had small 52" drivers, could develop an impressive 210 psi of boiler pressure to feed to its set of 26"x30" high pressure cylinders and its set of 40"x30" low pressvre cylinders. The engine weight tipped the sceles at 506,500 lb and it could apply a respectable tractive effort of 97,877 lb. Note the man almost swallowed up by the loco juqt behind the first set of cylinders. Smcll problem listing this correct on the website - no choice for Lima 2-8-8-2 available. Date is approximate. Max Miller photo |

| Description: |
Historical marker placed by the Pennsylvania DCNR at the location where the Western Maryland Railway's Ohiopyle Low Bridge used to be. I felt this was worth posting, as there is only one other Alco 2-8-0 from the Western Maryland on this website. The train was photographed sometime in the 1920's. |

| Description: |
After having set off its through freight at GENTILLY YARD, Louisville & Nashville J-3 class Mikado 1514 leads an auxiliary water car, a box car, and a caboose southbound across Canal Street. The box car is probably LCL (less-than-carload freight) consigned to Acme Fast Freight. After Work War II – and lasting into the early diesel era – it was common for freight trains to leave most of their cars at GENTILLY, and then bring their LCL and perishable cars all the way to JULIA STREET YARD. The vehicles on the right are waiting to board the Mississippi River ferry to the suburb of Algiers. (approximate date of photo) |
