PRR 3273, L-1S, 1948 |
Description: |
Horseshoe Curve-1948. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by Fred McLeod that was taken at the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, in the Summer of 1948. Shown here (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad engine #3273 and a T-1 (4-4-4-4) "Duplex" whose road number is not recorded. #3273 is an L-1S (2-8-2) "Mikado" built in Juniata during November of 1915 and retired in August of 1949 after 34 years of faithful service. They're pulling the "Metropolitan" from New York City to Chicago. At Gallitzin, the crew of #3273 will uncouple "on the fly" and then head back to Altoona for yet another helper run up "The Mountain." This photo comes from a color slide set entitled "Pennsy Steam Locomotives" that's produced and distributed by Blackhawk Films of Davenport, Iowa (109-6). |

CP 2-8-0 #3403 - Canadian Pacific |
Description: |
This is a strange photo. Although it appears to be an 0-8-0, it actually is a 2-8-0 Consolidation whose pilot truck was termporarily removed so it could serve as a yard switcher. An online source said that the pilot truck was kept handy to re-install just in case corporate inspectors would appear or road power was needed. The loco was built by the Montreal Locomotive Works in October of 1904 originally as CP 2-8-0 #1603 but was renumbered in September of 1912. The loco last into the 1950's. No date was given for the photo so an approximate one was used. James E. Platt photo |

CP 2-8-0 #3407 - Canadian Pacific |
Description: |
Although it appears as this is an 0-8-0 #3407 working the yard, it actually is still CP 2-8-0 #3407 just with its pilot truck removed temporarily. When the need arose for an 0-8-0 yard switcher, the Saskatoon shop would remove the front truck for use as a yard switcher. The tale goes that the shop would keep the pilot truck close by in case corporate inspectors would appear or if a road loco was needed. The loxo was built by the Montrail Locomotive Works in November of 1904 originally as CP 2-8-0 #1607 but later renumbred in October of 1912 to #3407. It lasted into the 1950's. This is a James Bowie photo. |

Description: |
The outdoor section of the museum was closed during my visit. However, I believe the back storage yard is never open to visitors. I could barely see No. 140-2044 and the backside of No. 241-4001 from inside the museum. No. 240-3001 is in the deadline as well, but it is not visible. |

Ex-CSD 434.2298 in the CD Muzeum |
Description: |
#434.2298 was one of 345 434.2 Class 2-8-0's built between 1924 and 1947 by CKD, and by CSD's own shops. #434.2298 is special, though, because it was built out of an older locomotive from Weiner Neustadt that dated to 1914. I don't know the exact date that #434.2298 was rebuilt, however. The museum's own website is confusing in this regard. The 434.2 Class was based on an earlier Austrian design dating back to 1897 (hence the reason, perhaps, for the rebuild), and was quite modern for its day. It's superheater was often noted, although most new mainline locomotives around the world were superheated by 1924. Later builds after 1939 had larger superheaters than earlier ones, but were counted as part of the same class. The most powerful 434.2 Class locomotives of all put out 1400 horsepower (in spite of weighing only 69.5 metric tonnes, with an adhesive weight of 58), and could pull a 600 tonne train up a 10% grade at 30Km/h, a truly extraordinary achievement by the standards of any era. On level track, however, only 60Km/h was possible. Such heavy haulers as these were clearly intended as freight locomotives, but many were used also on passenger trains (as old photos will confirm), and #434.2186 remains in service with CD as an excursion locomotive (although #434.2298 is inoperable, and not even owned by the CD Muzeum, being from the Narodni Technicky Muzeum collection in Prague). Wikipedia claims that the 434.2 Class remained in regular service on CSD until 1983, but this contradicts most of the other sources that I've read, which put the last year of mainline steam on CSD as 1982. Of course, some units may have been kept as backup locomotives until 1983, just as some American railroads kept steam backup locomotives into 1963, in spite of the last regularly scheduled mainline steam trips being ended in 1960. |

Roundhouse at the CD Muzeum |
Description: |
The Ceske Drahy Muzeum was, until the 1990s, an active depot with a roundhouse, another engine shed, and several other buildings. These buildings are now used for display and maintenance of the collection, and the roundhouse is used for both, with some stalls for display, and some for work. Here we see the turntable, several of the display stalls, and some of the steam locomotive collection. |
