| Title: |
SP (T&NO) 0-8-0 182 |
| Description: |
While the 0-8-0 was a pretty common locomotive type, the Southern Pacific Lines only owned 27 of these: 15 on the SP proper and 12 on the Texas & New Orleans. T&NO 175-186 were built at the railroad's Houston Shops between 1930 and 1936, utilizing boiler sections from retired MM-1 class 2-6-6-2's 900-911. All were renumbered 850-861 in 1950, so their original numbers could be assigned to a mixture of Alco RSD5’s and Baldwin AS616's built in 1952 and '53. One common assignment in the New Orleans area was the long-distance transfer runs from AVONDALE YARD, at the west end of the HUEY P. LONG BRIDGE, to the L&N and the Southern on the eastern side of the city. The 182 was photographed at ALGIERS YARD in the summer of 1950. It had been built in March 1931, was renumbered 857 on 29 September 1950 and was scrapped on 24 February 1956. (approximate date) |
