CB&Q 2-10-4 Class M-4 6318
Title:  CB&Q 2-10-4 Class M-4 6318
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-10-4 Class M-4 6318 somwhere on the Beardstown Division on an unknknown day in late 1927, photo by Baldwin Locomotivwe Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. The following is from the Burlington Route Historical Society's Bulletin 21, 'The Q's Colorado Types', by Hol Wagner:

The head-end crew, including a number of Mechanical Department officials, posed with the still-new 6318 as the M-4 was recorded by a Baldwin photographer on one of its break-in runs in coal train service on the Beardstown Division late in 1927. Note the air horns behind the stack and white flag. Note too the single-chime whistle mounted on the large live steam line, just ahead of the rear sand dome. The air horns won't last more than a few months, and the whistle would be moved forward, adjacent to the horns' former position. I count nine people in this photo, possibly a crowded cab on this date.

Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-8-2 Class O-1-A 4976 around October 5, 1959, location, and photographer unknown, print by Tom Klinger, Chuck Zeiler collection.

Also noted in the LAS is this locomotive equipped with a L&B Front End, (extended smokebox) indicating that it could burn Lignite or Bituminous coal, which produced more ash.
