DLMX #4219
Title:  DLMX #4219
Description:  This auxiliary water car was built in 1942 by Baldwin as the tender for SP Class AC-10 4-8-8-2 Cab Forward #4219, 1 of 40 such engines (#4205-#4244) in that Class, which were built between January and July 1942. After the #4219 was retired, its tender was reassigned to rotary snowplow #206 as SPMW #7206B, and later became water car SPMW #4764A. #4764A, along with water car #4764, was assigned to the Natron Cutoff (Cascade Summit) and based in Eugene. SP donated both water cars, with the #4764A becoming DLMX #4219 in time for the 1984 WORLDS FAIR DAYLIGHT to New Orleans; the #4764 was sold to the CP #2860 group.

SP 4-8-8-2 #4220 - Southern Pacific
Title:  SP 4-8-8-2 #4220 - Southern Pacific
Description:  Here is the unique cab forward 4-8-8-2 #4220 built By Baldwin in April of 1942. The design was to protect the crew from choaking smoke fumes experienced in traditional steam loco arrangements during the passage through 39 long tunnels and numerous snow sheds. In essence the loco was "running in reverse" but built with the cab in front with a window. Unfortunately, the loco only served SP for 17 years before being "vacated" (retired) in September of 1957 at Roseville, CA and eventually sold for scrap in April fo 1959. No date, location or photographer was listed for the photo.

SP 4-8-8-2 #4267 Cab Forward - Southern Pacific
Title:  SP 4-8-8-2 #4267 Cab Forward - Southern Pacific
Description:  Excellent example of thinking outside the box to solve problems. Southern Pacific literally turned their 4-8-8-2 steam locomotive around in order to solve smoke and vision problems inside long tunnels and snow sheds. It did create new problems such as the necessity to burn oil rather than coal, leaking oil and water lines over the drivers causing slippage, and front end collision danger for the crews. This loco was built by Baldwin in 1942 (SP says 3/1943) and lasted for nearly 14 years before being "vacated" in December of 1956 and eventually sold for scrap in January of 1957 at the Sacramento Shops. Specs - class AC-11, cab forward design, 63" drivers, impressive 250 psi boiler pressure, four sets of 24x32" cylinders, massive engine weight of 657,900 lb, impressive tractive effort of 124,300 lb.
