I had not seen a preserved Great Northern steam engine before. Sure I've seen the William Crooks up in Duluth, but the Crooks was for a predecessor road. At last, I have finally seen and photographed a Great Northern steamer: Mountain 2523, on display in Willmar for over fifty years. |

GN 4-8-2 #2524 - Great Northern |
| Description: |
Beautiful example of the 1923 Baldwin built "Mountain" type steam locomotive. According to several sources, the Class P-2 "Mountains" did an excellent job in passenger service. They were eventually replaced by the S-2 Northerns in Empire Builder service. The P-2 class locomotives were then used in freight service and were retired in 1955. These were successful passenger-haulers and were considered by many to have the best-looking Great Northern engine class. Specs - class P-2, oil burner, 73" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 29x28" cylinders, engine weight of 357,000 lb, tractive effort of 54,838 lb. Date is approximate. Robert Graham photo |

| Description: |
Fairly nice original photo or older reprint of Wabash 4-8-2 Mountain type locomotive built by Baldwin in November of 1929. After over 30 years of service, the entire class of 25 M1 locos was scrapped between 1953-55 to make room for the more efficient diesels. Wabash #2805 met the scrapper's torch in September of 1955. Specs - serial #61154, class M1, 70" drivers, 235 psi boiler pressure, 27x32" cylinders, engine weight of 406,400 lb, tractive effort of 66,568 lb. No date or photographer was lsited for the photo so an approximate date was used. |

WAB 4-8-2 #2807 |
| Description: |
When compared to some of the earlier locomotives in this album built in 1890's and early 1900's, this massive 1930 Baldwin locomotive is powerful, sophisticated and the product of years of constant research and development. This Mountain-type locomotive boasted 70" drivers and a whopping 235 psi boiler pressure but came near the end of steam. It was retired sometime between 1953-55, barely working 25 years. No known survivors of this class are known. No known location or date for this photo made by Forrest Trittenbach. |

ATSF 4-8-2 # 3707 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe |
| Description: |
This "Mountain"-type steam locomotive was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1919 . It was an ATSF class 3700 loco with tall 69" drivers, developed a boiler pressure of 200 psi, and created a respectable 54,085 lb of tractive effort . This was the answer to handle the increasingly longer passenger trains that the earlier 4-6-2 Pacifics couldn't do. After serving the ATSF for over 30 years, the class was retired between 1950-55. Date is approximate on this homemade photo. |

This 4-8-2 "Mountain"-type locomotive stands next to a watering stand pipe in an unknown yard. This 1920 Baldwin built locomotive had tall 69" drivers, produced a boiler pressure of 200 psi, and generated a respectable 54,085 lb tractive effort. After 30+ years of mostly passenger service, the class was scrapped between 1950-55. The date is approximate. |

| Description: |
Named "Little John" in the B&M sponsored contest, this brute is similar to its namesake, a real powerhouse in disguise.

No location or photographer were listed for this photo and the date is an approximation. |
