Sad to think that barely a month after this photo way taken by H.L Goldsmith on his visit to the Statford yard that this fine loco was sent to the scrapper's torch. The loco was used for express passenger service between major cities like Toronto and Montreal as well as Chicago. Specs - serial #1769, class U-1-b, 73" drivers, 210 psi boiler pressure, 26x30" cylinders, engine weight of 354,300 lb, tractive effort of 49,589 lb. |
