  • History Behind GN#1355 for GNRHS Web Sight
    History Behind GN #1355 for GNRHS Website The following information is a short detail of history behind the Great Northern Railway steam engine #1355. This information is displayed on the GNRHS website, so that others may gain an appreciation for the only engine of its kind left in the world. GN #1355 is a nationally recognized historical industrial treasure. *** This information updated 2-23-09. *** October 16, 1909 – On this date, after being built at the Baldwin Locomotive Works in Philadelphia, PA, Engine #B1477 (#33908) coal burning radial stay boiler, was fired up and tested. It was one of 25-E14 class 4- 6-0 engines to be built by BLW, for the GN. The 25-E14’s were shipped to St. Paul, MN to the Dale St. Shops. On November 13, 1909, Dale St. GN workers fired the boiler again to test it. On November 19th it was ready after inspections and was given the number of #1020. It was a numbered series from GN that ran from #1008- 1032. #1020 was sent directly to work in the Hillyard, WA region. In August, 1919, #1020 was sent to Spokane, WA Division passenger service until Feb. 19, 1924 when it would become a future historical engine. That is the date it was rolled into the Dale St. Shops for a major rebuild. The other 24 E14’s would also become new H5 class engines in time. #1020 would be the 8th E14 to be rebuilt to an H5 4-6-2. It would receive 23.5”x 30” cylinders, Belpaire boiler at 210 psi, type “A” header super heater tubes, larger fire box, longer boiler, Delta trailing trucks, pilot wheels replaced with solid wheels, brake modifications, new paint and converted from coal fired to fuel oil fired.

  • THE MANIFEST October 2016
    THE MANIFEST October 2016 Greetings! Where has the year gone! We are coming up on our last two run days! It has been a fantastic year and we have a new venue to look forward to for our show in November. Please remember that we will now be at the Jackson County Expo for our Thanksgiving weekend show. I want to also remind each and every one of you to vote for Measure 15-164 on election day. It will be of enormous benefit to all of the historical societies that are promoting it in Jackson County, including ours. VOTE YES ON MEASURE 15-164 and tell your friends, family, neighbors, complete strangers who live in Jackson County to vote yes too Recently, a friend asked me about the Great Northern, as I was wearing a T-shirt depicting the logo. I explained that I was from Montana and the Great Northern will always have a place in my heart. She asked about the history, I found this story. I did not edit the spelling, etc. of the author; however, there are numerous errors. I hope you enjoy it. 1 What was the Great Northern Railway? The Great Northern Railway was created in September 1889 from several predecessor railroads in Minnesota and eventually stretched from Lake Superior at Duluth and Minneapolis/St. Paul west through North Dakota, Montana and Northern Idaho to Washington State at Everett and Seattle. Headquarters for the line were located in St. Paul, Minnesota. The line was the culmination of one man's dream, James Jerome Hill, the "Empire Builder" so-called because of his ability to create prosperous business where none previously existed.
