BO 4-6-2 #5320 - Baltimore & Ohio |
Description: |
Beautiful newly built 4-6-2 Pacific stands outside the Baltimore & Ohio Mount Clare shops where it was built in 1928. The class before B&O #5320 was the Presidental P-7 class built by Baldwin in 1927. This was a powerful fleet of 20 passenger engines named after US Presidents in order, beginning with #5300 President Washington. #5320, however, was built by the B&O shops at Mt Clare, Maryland, with some interesting difference such as having Caprotti valve gear and a watertube boiler and classified as the only P9 loco. It carried the name "President Cleveland" to take its place in the Presidental line up. In 1947, it was rebuilt to conform to the others of the P7 class. Unknown photographer - possibly a B&O builder photo. |

Here is a side view of the B&O Mount Clare shops built 4-6-2 #5320. This unique locomotive carried the President Cleveland name to fit the P-7 class Presidental line although it was the lone P9 class loco. Eventually in 1947, it was rebuilt to match the P7 class. Unknown photographer - possibly a B&O builder photo. |

Here is another view of this striking sharp looking 4-6-2 Pacific built by the B&O Mount Clare shops in 1928.
