  • MLS Masterclass - 2002
    MLS MasterClass - 2002 Build a 2-6-6T / 0-6-6T Mason Bogie An Adventure in 1:20.3 By David Fletcher Chapter 3 - Mr. Mason, Bogies & Boilers Background Welcome back to the Mason show...and onward we march. This month we're looking at Mason's 1870 Technology and building the boiler for our Mason Bogie models. This is almost a turning point chapter in that this month your model will transform from a bunch of white styrene parts to a part-loco loaded with personal style and the style of Mr. Mason himself. We're talking 'Character' and from this chapter on, character is unavoidable. Your model will begin talking to you. The Model will also begin to be so damn stylish; it will provide the added incentive to finish. Long into the dark of the night you'll hear the cries coming out of the box where your unfinished model is stored: "finish me, finish me finish me...." Copyright 2002 - myLargescale.com/Model Railroads Online, LLC Background - Time to learn a bit more about Mr. Mason, his innovations, patents and design principles. This chapter is brought to us by George Sebastian-Coleman. George was a former Technical Editor to Model Railroader and Garden Railways, and employee of Grandt Line. For the last 30 years, George has made the delightful Mason Bogie a personal pursuit. Construction - This month we build the boiler, we produce the coveted Russia Iron finish, build the domes, headlight and bracket, stack and running boards. Again, like chapter 2, the work of this chapter can be done without having the BBT 2-6-6/0-6-6T drive.

  • Baldwin Locomotive Works Location: Philadelphia (Eddystone, PA, in 1912) Operating Dates: 1831-1956 Principals: Matthias W
    BUILDERS OF COLORADO OFFICE OF ARCHEOLOGY AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH COLORADO HISTORICAL SOCIETY Firm: Baldwin Locomotive Works Location: Philadelphia (Eddystone, PA, in 1912) Operating Dates: 1831-1956 Principals: Matthias W. Baldwin Information Jeweler and silversmith Matthias Baldwin founded the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1831. The original manufacturing plant was on Broad Street in Philadelphia where the company did business for 71 years until moving in 1912 to Eddystone, PA. Baldwin made its reputation building steam locomotives for the Pennsylvania Railroad, the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, and many of the other North American railroads, as well as for overseas railroads in England, France, India, Haiti and Egypt. Baldwin locomotives found their way onto the tracks of most Colorado railroads, both standard and narrow gauge. Baldwin built a huge number of 4-4-0 American type locomotives, but was perhaps best known for the 2-8-2 Mikado (D&RGW No. 491) and 2-8-0 Consolidation types (D&RGW No. 346 and DSP&P No. 191).1 It was also well known for the unique cab-forward 4-8-8-2 articulated locomotives built for the Southern Pacific Railroad and the massive 2-10-2 engines for the Santa Fe Railroad. One of Baldwin's last new and improved locomotive designs was the 4-8-4 (Northern) locomotive (Santa Fe No. 2911). In 1939, Baldwin offered its first standard line of diesel locomotives, all designed for rail yard service. Two years later, America's entry into World War II destroyed Baldwin's diesel development program when the War Production Board dictated that ALCO (American Locomotive Company) and Baldwin produce only diesel-electric yard switching engines.

  • Union Pacific 844 4-8-4 FEF “Northern”
    True Sound Project for Zimo Sounds designed by Heinz Daeppen US Steam Page 1 Version 160328 Union Pacific 844 4-8-4 FEF “Northern” The Prototype The category FEF locomotives of the Union Pacific Railroad (UP), also known as class 800, are steam locomotives with the wheel arrangement 2'D2 '(Northern). In the total of 45 locomotives, there are three series of delivery or subclasses FEF 1 FEF 2 and FEF-3, where the FEF-2 and -3 differ in driving axels and cylinder diameter to the FEF-1. The last locomotive of this series, no. 844, was the last steam locomotive built for UP. It was never taken out of service and is kept operational by the UP today. In the late 1930s, the pulling loads on train operations were so large that the 2'D1 locomotives Class 7000 reached its limits. After the failure of such a locomotive, which happened to be pulling a train containing the official car of the US President, ALCO was commissioned to build a stronger engine, which could pull 20 coaches with 90 mph (145 km/h) on the flat. The first 20 locomotives were delivered 1937. They got the numbers 800-819 and the name FEF, which stood for "four-eight-four" (the wheel arrangement 4-8-4 in the Whyte notation). They had a driving wheels of 77 inches (1956 mm). The first driving axel was displaced laterally, so that despite a solid wheelbase of 6.7 m the locomotive could still handle the same radius curves . Despite the size of the locomotives only two cylinders were used, as was almost always common in the United States.

The development of the railway locomotive 1. The steam locomotive is, in essence, a large kettle which heats water until it turns into steam, that steam is then used, under pressure, to move the engine and the train. One of the earliest and most successful locomotives was “The Rocket” used on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway which opened in 1830. The Rocket Wheel arrangement 0-2-2 Built 1829 2. This early design was rapidly improved upon and the locomotive soon assumed the shape that we recognise today. “Captain Baxter was built in 1877 and can be seen today at the Bluebell Railway. Dorking Greystone Lime Company No 3 “Captain Baxter” Wheels 0-4-0T Built 1877 3. A the years went by bigger and faster locomotives were developed to meet the needs of both passengers and freight as illustrated by this South Eastern & Chatham Railway engine which ran between London and the Kent coast. South Eastern & Chatham Railway No. 263 Wheel arrangement 0-4-4T Built 1905 4. As passenger traffic grew in the 20th century still larger and more powerful engines were required. This Southern Railway engine, built in 1936, was sent to Barry Scrapyard in South Wales following the end of steam on British Railways in 1968. It was rescued by the Bluebell and delivered to Sheffield Park Station in 1978, where it was restored to running order.

Certainly all railroad men do. For even when you work every day on the railroad, the glamor of engines and trains and tracks never dies out. In this little booklet we take you behind the scenes on Southern Pacific showing you how to tell our locomotives apart and what the signs and signals mean. There is a good reason for every sign, signal, rule and regulation on Southern Pacific, and most of them are based on safety. "Safety First" is drilled into every one of us from the very first day we start in the service. You may think of a railroad in terms of trains and tracks. Actually the Southern Pacific Company is 60,000 men and women. The trains and tracks are only the tools with which we work. For example, a locomotive is simply a machine controlled by men. These men know that hundreds of people on the train behind are depending upon them for a comfortable trip, smooth starts and stops. They take more pride in doing this job well than you can possibly imagine, unless you've been an engineer yourself.

The Big Boy’s were designed to pull heavy freights up the Wasatch Range in Utah to the division point at Green River, WY. What was needed was a locomotive to take over at that point that could speed the freights eastward across the Wyoming Division. Building on their experience with the original CSA 4-6-6-4 Challengers UP and Alco’s designers developed a newer and better Challenger type locomotive. The result was a group of 65 4-6-6-4 Challenger built in three separate groups during World War II.
