This is a nice example of the Hoosier iconic Mikado built by Alco-Schenectady in 1929. Small discrepancy between the date of 1949 listed on the photo compared to www.SteamLocomotives.com which states this loco was sold to the Tennessee, Alabama & Georgia in 1948. Can anyone clarify this discrepancy? Specifics - 63" drivers, 220 psi boiler pressure, 27x32" cylinders, engine weight of 335,000 lb, tractive effort of 69,243 lb. T.W. Cassidy photo |
