Locomotive Dedication Ceremony
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers REGIONAL MECHANICAL ENGINEERING HERITAGE COLLECTION LOCOMOTIVE DEDICATION CEREMONY Kenefick Park • Omaha, Nebraska June 7, 1994 Locomotives 4023 and 6900 are examples of the world’s largest motive power in the steam and diesel eras. These locomotives are on permanent display at Kenefick Park, which was established in 1989 in honor of noted former Union Pacific chairman, John C. Kenefick. The 4023 was one of twenty-five famous “Big Boy” type simple articulated locomotives Locomotive 4023 was a feature display lauded in the industry and press as the highest horsepower, heaviest and longest steam at the Omaha Shops locomotives ever built, developing seven thousand horsepower at their seventy miles until being moved to per hour design speed. Kenefick Park. 2 World’s largest The Big Boy type was designed at the Omaha headquarters of Union Pacific under the single unit diesel personal direction of the road’s noted mechanical head, Otto Jabelmann. The original locomotives required four axle trucks to distribute twenty locomotives of this type were built by American Locomotive Company in their heavy weight and Schenectady, New York, in the fall of 1941. They were built in preparation for the nation’s keep within track probable entry into World War II because no proven diesel freight locomotive was yet loading limits. in production. These 4-8-8-4 type locomotives were specifically designed to haul fast, heavy eastbound freight trains between Ogden, Utah, and Green River, Wyoming, over the 1.14 percent eastbound grade. The 4023 was one of five additional units built in 1944 under govern- ment authority in preparation for a twenty-five percent increase in traffic due to the shift from European to Pacific war operations. -

The Steam Locomotive Table, V1
The Steam Locomotive Table, v1 If you’re reading this; you either like steam trains, or want to know more about them. Hopefully, either way, I can scratch your itch with this; a set of randomizer/dice-roll tables of my own making; as inspired by some similar tables for tanks and aircrafts. Bear with me, I know not everyone knows the things I do, and I sure know I don’t know a lot of things other train enthusiasts do; but hopefully the descriptions and examples will be enough to get anyone through this smoothly. To begin, you’ll either want a bunch of dice or any online dice-rolling/number generating site (or just pick at your own whim); and somewhere or something to keep track of the details. These tables will give details of a presumed (roughly) standard steam locomotive. No sentinels or other engines with vertical boilers; no climax, shay, etc specially driven locomotives; are considered for this listing as they can change many of the fundamental details of an engine. Go in expecting to make the likes of mainline, branchline, dockyard, etc engines; not the likes of experiments like Bulleid’s Leader or specific industry engines like the aforementioned logging shays. Some dice rolls will have uneven distribution, such as “1-4, and 5-6”. Typically this means that the less likely detail is also one that is/was significantly less common in real life, or significantly more complex to depict. For clarity sake examples will be linked, but you’re always encouraged to look up more as you would like or feel necessary. -

Chapter Eleven an Angel in Tombstone 1880 – 1881
Baker/Toughnut Angel/11 1 Chapter Eleven An Angel in Tombstone 1880 – 1881 Tombstone, Arizona Territory, 1800s (Courtesy Tombstone Courthouse) Nellie stepped off the stage onto Allen Street’s dusty board sidewalk. She turned to catch her carpetbag when the stage driver lifted it down, but stumbled over the hem of her skirt into the path of a dark-haired man with a full mustache. The stranger grabbed Baker/Toughnut Angel/11 2 her waist. “Whoa. Welcome to Tombstone! Got your balance there, Ma’am?” Nellie pulled her traveling skirt out from under her button-down shoe and noticed the man wore a silver star on his blue shirt. He took her grip from the driver and set it on the sidewalk. “My name’s Virgil Earp.” Next to him two other men attempted not to laugh. Virgil smiled, and indicated the other two with his hand. “May I present my brother, Wyatt, and Doc Holliday?” Earp, not a common name. These must be the Earps who had served as lawmen in Dodge City. She’d read newspaper articles and one of T.J.’s dime novels about Wyatt Earp. Doc Holliday stopped stamping his black boots to remove the dust, bowed at the waist and swept his bowler hat from his head. He smelled of leather and, what was that? Sage? “Indeed, welcome to Tombstone, lovely lady.” He drawled in a bass voice from under another wide black mustache. That made Nellie think of how Papa had always joked that men with mustaches were trying to hide something -- their upper lips. -

Box 207 Pearce, Arizona 85625 2 THE LIFE AND TIMES OF WYATT EARP by John D. Gilchriese Field Historian, University of Arizona On March 19, 1848 a seemingly unimportant event took place in Monmouth, Warren County, Illinois. Although nearly totally unnoticed at the time, the birth of Wyatt Berry Stapp Earp would prove significant to countless individuals interested in the history of the post Civil War, trans-Mississippi West. His name has become commonplace to serious historians and an army of fictioneers alike. Yet, history shows that this man spent little actual time in Mon mouth. Just two years after his birth, the Earp family migrated to Pella, in southeastern Iowa. On the beautiful rolling prairies sur rounding this small agricultural town, Wyatt Earp grew to manhood. Due to the rigid insistence of his father, Nicholas Porter Earp, Wyatt, his brothers and sisters received a two-fold education. For the sons this included not only classroom studies, but a knowledge of several trades as well. Farm work, however, never appealed to Wyatt who as a small boy craved the more adventurous pursuits of hunting and exploring the local Iowa countryside. -
