NYC/P&E 4-8-2 #44 -New York Central/Peoria & Eastern |
| Description: |
Sharp looking roster shot of NYC/P&E #44 with a head of steam up, a loaded tender and a stack billowing smoke! This 4-8-2 Mohawk (NYC's name for Mountain type) was built by Lima in April of 1918 originally as New York Central #2614 (serial #5528, class L-1c). Athough it retained the New York Central System label on the tender, it was renumbered to Peoria & Easstern #2614 with a small "P&E" on the top lip of the tender. Less than a year later, it was renumbered again to Peoria & Eastern #44 in March of 1937 as shown in this photo. The loco lasted until being retired and sold for scrap in January of 1951 after 33 years of services. Specs - 69" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 28x28" cylinders, engine wt of 348,000 lb and tractive force of 54,080 lb. This is a C.C. Grayson photo now in my rr collection. |

IC Train No. 25 |
| Description: |
At around 10 a.m. Illinois Central mail-and-express train No. 25 – the SOUTHERN EXPRESS – was pulling up to the station at Hammond Louisiana behind 4-8-2 2431. Despite its name, No. 25 was anything but an express, taking 23 hours and 10 minutes to cover the 921 miles between Chicago and New Orleans. Visible above the train’s last cars was the Hammond coal tower, from which Coal Shoot (sic) Road got its name. The wooden caboose on the right was the 9231. |

This engine was recently repainted by volunteers and the CN. IC Paducah Shops rebuilt 2-10-2 #2953 into this 4-8-2 using the old boiler and a new Granite City Steel engine bed. The 30" x 30" cylinders and the air reservoirs are cast into the frame. It was dedicated here on 10-5-62, and the shelter was built in 1992.
