ATSF 4-4-2 #1491 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
Title:  ATSF 4-4-2 #1491 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
Description:  This 1910 Baldwin built Atlantic type locomotive was a departure from the normal configuration and prone to leaks. The Forrest Trittenbach photo was labeled as taken in Purpis, Col, but no location matches the name. With Mike Woodruff's help (see comment below), the location is Pueblo Union Depot.
