Date Unknown. Photo provided by Karen Keller, grand-daughter of Harry By the 1920s the Northern Pacific (NP) Railroad needed bigger passenger locomotives. The NP had its motive power department work with the American Locomotive Company's design engineers to develop a new locomotive. They created a new locomotive with a massive firebox that had a 115 square foot grate area supported by a four wheel trailing truck. It was the first locomotive with a 4-8-4 wheel arrangement, and this wheel arrangement became commonly known as the “Northern” type locomotive. The 4-8-4 was an example of the "Super Power" concept in steam locomotive design that August 2013 Pacific Northwest Chapter National Railway Historical Society The Trainmaster Page 1 made use of the larger firebox that could be supported by the four- wheel trailing truck. The locomotive shown here, number 2602, was one of twelve of these Northern Pacific Class A 4-8-4’s which were built by Alco in 1926. These locomotives had 73" drivers, 28 x 30 inch cylinders, a boiler pressure of 210 psi, a tractive effort of 57,500 lbs and weighed 426,000 pounds. Locomotive #2602 was scrapped in 1957.
