Nice view of the 1910 Baldwin built 2-8-0 C Consolidation camelback that served until July of 1948, long after the other two in the E-9 class were scrapped. Specs - class E-9 class, 50" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 20x26" cylinders, engine weight of 153,200 lb, tractive effort of 35,360 lb. The loco was later superheated by the LNE shops.
