I normally don't write notes about just one locomotive. But this 1907 Pacific locomotive has to be a significant milestone in the development of steam power.
Dave Durnam posted C&A 601, credited in this 1907 photo as the largest engine in the world, with Calvary in foreground mounted on horses. G.R. Lawrence, photographer. Richard Fiedler: If I recall correctly this photo was taken at Brighton Park in Chicago. Dave Durnam shared |
Brian Falasz commented on Dave's post Sans cavalry and horses. [We can clearly see the 4-6-2 wheel arrangement for a Pacific locomotive.] |
