Description:  Built by Burnham, Wms & Co in February of 1904, this 4-6-0 ten wheeler served the SLSF until disappearing off the roster between 1937-43.

No date, location or photographer was listed for the photo so an approximate date was used. .

Title:  SLSF 4-6-0 #1401 - St Louis-San Francisco (Frisco)
Description:  Good looking 4-6-0 ten wheeler built by Burnham, Wms & Co (Baldwin predecessor) in December of 1907.

SLSF 4-6-0 #1404 - St Louis-San Francisco (Frisco)
Title:  SLSF 4-6-0 #1404 - St Louis-San Francisco (Frisco)
Description:  A fading original photo of the 1907 Burnham, Wms & Co built ten wheeler. According to www.steamlocomotives.com, "Very#few engines were delivered with this particular combination of bore and stroke. Few Ten-wheelers had cylinders this big in any case, yet their 13" piston valves actuated by the still-rare Walschaert's gear seem well-sized to keep up with demand. The 1400s were never converted to oil burning, although their boilers were superheated" Unknown photographer

SLSF 4-6-0 #1406 - St Louis-San Francisco (Frisco)
Title:  SLSF 4-6-0 #1406 - St Louis-San Francisco (Frisco)
Description:  This is an unusual photo with several discrepancies. It appears to be in a storage/scrap line but the loco was still working in 1939. Second, the "Vanderbilt" tender was rarer on SLSF locos and suggests possibly that it was an oil burner but several sources state that this class was not an oil burner. Nevertheless, the loco was built by Burnham, Wms &Co in December of 1907 and after 40+ years was "dismissed from service" between March 1950 and November 1951. No photographer was listed for the photo.
