can you believe the size of steam locomotives?
I was looking at the specs to UP#844,and it's drive wheels are 80" in diameter,and the boiler is 86 3/16" in diameter.Now that's almost 2 stories high! The locomotive doesn't look that big in pictures,but I would love to get to see that engine up close.It would tower over me.I can't believe how big these engines are.It's too bad they scrapped them.My grand uncle used to be an engineer back in the 40's and 50's on the Boston and Maine,but those engines weren't as big.He misses the days of steam too.I've been into trains my whole life,and I have a collection of Lionel and American Flyers.They're not set up cause I don't have room anymore,but hope to get them up soon!Anyone else seen steam locomotives up close?I've ridden on a Climax engine in the cab on the White Mountain Scenic Raailroad,but aagain thaat engine's a baaby compared to that UP#844.
It's great to see you have an interest in mechanical things like steam engines. Most people struggle to open the hood of their car. The largest Steam Engine I ever saw (it was a photo) as far as wheel configuration, was a Santa Fe 2-10-10-2, number 3002. Santa Fe built ten of them in 1911 from 20 2-10-2s. They had help with custom parts from Baldwin Locomotive Co. They weighed in at 540 tons. They were too big to be really successful though, and by 1919, all were cut in half and returned to 2-10-2s.
I envy you for having had a ride in a Climax. I've always wanted to do that.
