NYC 4-6-4 #5352 - New York Central |
| Description: |
Built by Alco-Schenectady in November of 1927 (NYC records show 12/1927), this 4-6-4 Hudson started out as Michigan Central #8207 (serial #67488). In 1936, the Michigan Central sold (?) it to NYC who renumbered it as NYC #5352. An additional booster was added which brought 10,900 lb more tractive effort. After serving both the MC & NYC for nearly 26 years, the loco was retired in June of 1953 and sold for scrap in September of 1953. Interestingly, the listed date for this photo is 10/17/1954 after the sold for scrap date This very well may be the last photo ever taken of the loco as it sat lined out in a scrap line. .Specs - 79" drivers, 225 psi boiler pressure, 25x28" cylinders, engine weight of 359,800 lb, tractive effort of 42,360 lb, booser tractive effort of 10,900 lb.

| Description: |
Rugged looking 4-6-4 Hudson was built by Alco-Schenectady in September of 1937 as NYC 5409 (serial #68843, class J-3a). The loco served for nearly 31 years before being retired in February of 1956.

Specs - 79" drivers, impessive 265psi boiler pressure, 22.5x29" cylinders, engine weight of 360,000 lb, tractive effort of 41,860 lb, booser tractive effort of 12,100 lb. |

NYC 4-6-4 #5451 - New York Central |
| Description: |
Built by ALCo-Schenectady in April of 1938 originally as a NYC streamlined 4-6-4 Hudson #5451 (serial #68885), the streamline shrouding was removed in 1947. Nice to look at but according to most crews, a pain to service when the shroud was on. The loco lasted until retirement in February of 1956. Seen here a month later it has yet to be scrapped. Probably one of the last photos ever taken of it. Specs - originally streamlined, 79" drivers, impressive 265 psi boiler pressure, 22.5x29" cylinders, engine weight of 365,500 lb, tractive effort of 41,860 lb, booster unit tractive force of 12,100 lb. Unknown photographer. |
