CNJ 4-6-0C #751 - Central RR of New Jersey |
| Description: |
The fate of this 1902 Baldwin built 4-6-0 camelback seems in question as it sits in what might be a scrap line. Baldwin, 1910, Specifics - L-6a class, camelback, 69" drivers, 210 psi boiler pressure, 22x28" cylinders, engine weight of 195,000 lb, tractive effort of 35,058 lb. The photographer did not put his name on the photo but did include a lot of detail about the camera settings. He used a Ciroflex "B" camera with 120 size Exx film at 1/50th sec exposure with f/d 50, then used Micro film developer and printed the photo on #3 paper . Only wish he had written his name as well. |
