Nickel Plate Road 2-8-2 #615 |
| Description: |
Barrelling down the tracks and creating a trailing cloud of impressive smoke near Dear Creek, IL, with a seemingly endless string of tankers stretching behind is Nickel Plate Road #615. Built by Lima Locomotive Works of Ohio in 1920 as a class H-6b, it had 63" drivers, an overall engine+tender wheelbase of 61.19', and an engine wt 305,400 lb. Wish I could credit the photograhper for this beautiful action shot but none was listed. Sadly, it was scrapped sometime between 1945-1962. |

Similar to its older sister, NKP 615, this steamer was also built by Lima Locomotive Works of Ohio in 1922 as a little later class H-6d. It also had 63" drivers, and overall engine+tender wheelbase of 61.19', and an engine wt 305,400 lb. Here it's pulling a mixed freight just west of Crandall, IL, on this May day in 1943. Sadly, it was scrapped sometime between 1945-1962. |

NKP 2-8-2 #636 |
| Description: |
Beautiful photo of a 1923 Lima built Mikado with a full head of steam. Eventually scrapped on July 11, 1945. Actual date and location of the photo are unknown. An interesting sidenote came up from Marcus W (see comment below) about this loco derailing in Edwardsville, IL, on 2/21/1942. May have been repaired or just stored before being scrapped 3 years later. |
