GN 4-6-0 #1004 - Great Northern |
| Description: |
Sad to see this ten wheeler obviously sitting in scrap line having already lost its headlight, number board and bell. Built by Brooks (per-ALCO) in May of 1898 originally as Eastern Rwy of Minnesot 4-6-0 #154, it was renumbered in 1899 to Eastern Rwy #1004. When Eastern Minnesota was absorbed into the Great Northern roster, the loco became GN 4-6-0 #1004. It was later superheated by the GN Shops and bumped up to E-10s class. After nearly 34 years of dedicated service, the loco was scrapped in March of 1932. Original specs - 63" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 20x30" cylinders, engine weight of 166,580 lb and modest 32,380 lb. This is a Robert Graham photo. No date was given for the photo but since it appears to be in the scrap line, it was given 1932 as the date. |

GN 2186 Sits ready-to-go in a Cold Dawn awaiting retirement |
| Description: |
2186 - Class Q2 sits ready to go on a cold morning. Retirement is only a year or so awayat age 30. Bad thing about being a retired steam locomotive - you don't get to enjoy it long - you end up being recycled into other useful things. |

DW&P RDC3 D-301 |
| Description: |
Duluth Winnipeg & Pacific RDC3 D-301 at Duluth, Minnesota on an unknown day in June 1958, photographer unknown, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number D-301 was built in 1956 (c/n 6602), becoming CN D-355 in October 1961. I will point out that it has a Railway Post Office (RPO) section, and to the left of the sign between the two baggage doors on the side is a small slot. One could put mail in that door, and it would be processed by the Post Office just like it was dropped in a mailbox. As a teen, I would drop a postcard into that slot (which was also on all RPO cars in the US) addressed to myself. The stamp would be cancelled by someone on the RPO, and that cancellation mark would have the train number recorded. |
