Title:
DLW 4-6-4 #1151 - Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
Description:
Here is a powerful and fast 4-6-4 Hudson built by Alco-Schenectady in 1937 for the DLW. One online source states "...fast, powerful engines designed to pull 16-18 cars at 80 mph -- but the speed limit on the route was 70 mph and the trains were rarely ever more than 8 to 10 cars." Interesting oddity - does anyone know why there are blocks of rock on the pilot? Did this loco go so fast it had to be held down in front - just kidding. Specs - serial #68910, class M-1, 80" drivers, 245 psi boiler pressure, 26x30" cylinders, engine weight of 377,000 lb, tractive effort of 52,791 lb. All five in the M-1 class were removed from service and scrapped between 1951-53. J.R. Quinn photo

Title:
DLW 4-6-4 #1152
Description:
Powerful and fast are tow descriptive words for this long, sleek Alco-Schenectady built 4-6-4 Hudson. DLW #1152 was delivered in 1937 and served first in fast passenger service but relegated to lesser routes as DLW dieselized. All five in the M-1 class were removed from service and scrapped between 1951-53. Specs - serial #68911, class M-1, 80" drivers, 245 psi boiler pressure, 26x30" cylinders, engine weight of 377,000 lb, tractive effort of 52,791 lb. J.R. Quinn photo

DLW 4-6-2 #1134 - Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
Description:
Getting near the end of its service (the last of the class was retired in 1953), this DLW 4-6-2 Pacific #1134 still looks good. Interesting note is the snow plow attached to the front - not a typical view. Specs - serial #55129, N-6 class, 73" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 27x28" cylinders, engine weight of 305,500 lb, tractive effort of 47,535 lb. The last of the class was in 1953. J.R.
