Title:
BO 2-8-8-4 #7600 - Baltimore & Ohio
Description:
Beautiful action shot taken by an unknown photographer of the massive B&O 2-8-8-4 Yellowstone type locomotive #7600. This was the first of 30 massive Yellowstones built by Baldwin although the B&O had wanted diesels instead. The War Production Board restricted diesel building so these were built instead. The loco was renumbered in 1956 to BO 650 and retired in 1960. Specs - EM-1 class, 64" drivers, impressive 235 psi boiler pressure, four 24x32" cylinders, massive engine weight of 628,700 lb, impressive tractive effort of 115,000 lb. No date, location or photographer was listed for this great photo.
