SP 2-6-0 #1721 & Electric Steeple Cab XXXX |
Description: |
Built by Baldwin in September 1901 (19533), rebuilt by the Southern Pacific Sacramento shops in July 1909 to simple, new Alco boiler in June 1913, superheated at Sparks, Nevada in May 1919, this Mogul type locomotive is hauling a long string of stone gondolas on this day. Note the electric steeple cab unit trailing behind it - mix of steam and electric to pull this loaded train! No date or location were listed on the back so both are estimates. Photograher unknown. Number 1721 was sold for scrap in September 1954. |
