    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 Depot Tower Interlocking Plant
    Union Depot Tower Union Depot Tower (U.D. Tower) was completed in 1914 as part of a municipal project to improve rail transportation through Joliet, which included track elevation of all four railroad lines that went through downtown Joliet and the construction of a new passenger station to consolidate the four existing passenger stations into one. A result of this overall project was the above-grade intersection of 4 north-south lines with 4 east-west lines. The crossing of these rail lines required sixteen track diamonds. A diamond is a fixed intersection between two tracks. The purpose of UD Tower was to ensure and coordinate the safe and timely movement of trains through this critical intersection of east-west and north-south rail travel. UD Tower housed the mechanisms for controlling the various rail switches at the intersection, also known as an interlocking plant. Interlocking Plant Interlocking plants consisted of the signaling appliances and tracks at the intersections of major rail lines that required a method of control to prevent collisions and provide for the efficient movement of trains. Most interlocking plants had elevated structures that housed mechanisms for controlling the various rail switches at the intersection. Union Depot Tower is such an elevated structure. Source: Museum of the American Railroad Frisco Texas CSX Train 1513 moves east through the interlocking. July 25, 1997. Photo courtesy of Tim Frey Ownership of Union Depot Tower Upon the completion of Union Depot Tower in 1914, U.D. Tower was owned and operated by the four rail companies with lines that came through downtown Joliet.

  • City of Portland Union Pacific Railroad
    CITY OF PORTLAND UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD CHICAGO AND NORTH WESTERN LINE CITY OF PORTLAND The "City of Port- land" described in this booklet is a 13-car train plus a 3-car Diesel power unit. Perhaps the most outstanding feature of this train is the Observa- tion-Lounge Car, named the "Copper King," embodying remarkable innovations in railroad development. The deft decorations, unique and colorful, are by Mrs. W. A. Harriman, wife of the Chairman of the Board of the Union Pacific. Her contribu- tion to the unusual interior decorations of other Union Pacific streamline trains has created con- siderable favorable comment. The "Copper King" is the first "light-condi- tioned" car in railroading and the first in which copper has been used so extensively for interior decoration, finishings and appointments. The final touch of the selections of color schemes for the furniture, the decorating, upholstering, carpeting and the exquisite buffet and other interior appoint- ments was added by Mrs. Harriman. Pullman passengers enjoy complete relaxation in the -Copper King". The “Copper King" Observation-Lounge Car. • As the name implies, the "Copper King" is resplendent in shimmering copper. The side walls have satin finished copper paneling. Tables, smoke-stands and other accessories are constructed of copper bronze and the same metal has been skillfully used in the specially designed furniture. The service buffet, near the entrance to the car, is a harmonious symphony of copper and glass.
