BO 2-10-2 #6184 - Baltimore & Ohio
Description:
Here's a fairly good looking and powerful member of the B&O roster, B&O 2-10-2 #6154. The loco was built by the Lima Locomotive Works in June of 1926 as part of the third round of 2-10-2's ordered for the B&O. The large tractive effort generated by the locomotive (84,300 lb) proved to be very handy in the Allegheny mountains.

Specs - S-1a class, 64" drivers, 220 psi boiler pressure, 30x32" cylinders, engine weight of 436,510 lb, tractive effort of 84,300 lb. No date, location or photographer was listed for this photo.
